To create templates (OP-CE)

A template contains common data for a group of users. This section provides information that you need to create templates. In these templates, you can define the non-role-dependent authorizations for a group of normal users. You can also enter additional template parameters that a group of users share.

This section uses the User Data template as an example. The procedure is representative for most templates in LN ’s Authorization Management System (AMS). You can convert changes to the template to the run-time data dictionary. On the appropriate menu in these sessions, click Convert to Runtime DD to start the Convert Changes to Runtime DD (ttams2200m000) session. For a detailed description of this session, see the session's online help.

As soon as the template data has changed, conversion indicators are automatically set for all individual LN users who are linked to the templates. The user data is only converted to LN ’s run-time data dictionary if the data in the templates has changed. The conversion is, therefore, only performed when necessary.

This section describes only the most important steps in the user data template procedure. For detailed instructions on how to enter data in the described sessions, see the online help of the sessions.
