SA timers on Application

In the SA dialog timers for lpars are specified under "30 TMR Timers".

We also specify a lot of timers on the application in the STARTUP phase under ANYSTART with the CHRON command to set timer and in the SHUTDOWN phase under INIT to purge the timer on the application.

    Hello Raimund, I know the INGTIMER command but this is not what we want.
    We use the PURGE cmd in the SHUTINIT.

    What we want is one point in the SA- Dialog on the APL analog to Point 30 timers.
