  • 1.  ASM to read TSO User ID from RACF Group

    Posted Sep 12, 2015 08:25 AM

    We can code our package exits to send an email for the external Approver Groups by matching the Approver Group name in the SMTP table.  However, some of our ENDEVOR users want to receive the notifications that there is a package waiting for their review as a TSO message.  To do this we would need to read the RACF group.  Does anyone have instructions on how to read the TSO User ID from a RACF group in assembler or COBOL?

    Mathew,

     

    Endevor is not designed to provide this functionality, you should open an Ideation and let's see how other customers feel about adding this as a feature to Endevor. s

    Not sure how your "matching the approver group name in the SMTP table", because we code our SMTP table with individual IDs and matching email addresses.  If all you have is the Approver group name, you can code an API to read the approver group and pull the ID from there.

    For external Approver Groups we have no individual IDs.  So our package exit uses the Approver Group name and sends an email to a group email address (one email address for multiple individual recipients).  The Approver Group name and its email address are specified in the SMTP table the same way that individual IDs and email addresses are specified in the SMTP table.
