Issue/Introduction

Currently user issues LOGON APPLID(xxxxx) DATA(xxxx) from outside TPX.  Is there any way to pass parameters to an application via TPX logon (maybe something I can add to the ACT member)?

 

 

Environment

TPX® Session Management for z/OS

Resolution

Yes. SessionData for an application can be defined either at the user level or the profile level.

1. From either at the profile or user level
2. Select a session then page down to the second screen and you will see SessionData. 

Example from the User level:

                  TPX Userid Maintenance Detail Panel
                                                             Panelid  - TEN0126

  Command ===>                                               Userid   - XXXXXXXX

                                                             Termid   - XXXXXXXX
 Userid:   XXXXXXXX           Session:  XXXX                 Date     - 02/23/16
 Applid:   XXXXXXXX                                          Time     - 11:31:32
 Label:          XXX For XXXX

 Profile label:  ________________________________

 ACT label    :
                                         Profile Defaults

 Output Option: _______                   ________
 Parm 1: ___________________________ ___________________________
 Parm 2: ___________________________ ___________________________
 Parm 3: ___________________________ ___________________________
 Parm 4: ___________________________ ___________________________
 Parm 5: ___________________________ ___________________________
 Parm 6: ___________________________ ___________________________
 Parm 7: ___________________________ ___________________________
 Parm 8: ___________________________ ___________________________

 SessionData: ____________________________________________________________

 Default:     ____________________________________________________________

SessionData represents up to 60 characters of data that should be passed by TPX when the application session is being activated. This could include ACL symbolic parameters like &USERID.

To display no SessionData and override the data set at the profile level, type a blank in the field
