Issue/Introduction

The example is a standard set up the BC1TNEQU table.  This set up will check 2 datasets. The first check(standard) will check the Environment, System and Subsystem. The Second check (extension) will check the action. 

For example:
 

 NAMEQU ACTION_INITIATION,
        L1=('C1'),
        L2=(ENVIRONMENT),
        L3=(SYSTEM),
        L4=(SUBSYSTEM)

 NAMEQU ACTION_INITIATION,
        L1=('C1'),
        L2=(MENUAUTH)

I would like to limit who can add,delete etc to a specific stage of Endevor. How can I do this?

Environment

z/OS 
Endevor base all versions

Resolution

You can add the stage to the second "NAMEQU ACTION_INITIATION" as follows.

NAMEQU ACTION_INITIATION, +
L1=('C1'), +
L2=(STAGEID), +
L3=(MENUAUTH)

This would change the second check to include the stage id. So if the actions was ADD and the stage ID is P the dataset built would be C1.P.ADD
Note: take care when adding in the L2. The stage ID may be numeric. If it is it is not a valid dataset qualifier. A alternative would be to use STAGENAME or add a character to the beginning as follows:

NAMEQU ACTION_INITIATION, +
L1=('C1'), +
L2=('S',STAGEID), +
L3=(MENUAUTH)
