    When using RA.3.4 to list a User's access via direct permit or connect (Option2), the report does not indicate that the user may have access to the same resource via multiple groups. Would like to see a version of the code to be able to show the r...

    Allow more date formats with the DATE$STR option to print a string when the date is missing

    When you print user profiles, and the user never logged on or never changed their password, zSecure leaves the date field blank. For some audit reports, this is undesirable, and "never used" and "never set" are better values in the list of dates. ...

    zSecure - Matching SMF Field-Names to zSecure Names

    It is, to put it politely, a nightmare to locate the zSecure field name, when one has the SMF field name (from the SMF or IP manuals). SCKRCARL(CKADFTCP) helps in locating the zSecure field names, but that's all. To make life a lot easier, why not...
