S_TMS_ACT (TemSe: Actions on TemSe Objects)

Definition

Authorization Object that is used to determine who is authorized to perform which operations on which TemSe Objects (objects with temporary sequential data).

Use

Authorizations using S_TMS_ACT only control direct access. TemSe files are protected from applications that access their data indirectly, such as the spooler or background request management, by their own authorization checks.

Structure

The S_TMS_ACT authorization object contains the following fields, which are tested during an authorization check:

Authorization Field	Long Text
STMSACTION	TemSe: Action ID for Authorizations
STMSOWNER	TemSe: Owner Group for Authorizations
STMSOBJECT	TemSe: Generic Object Name for Authorizations

More Information About the Fields

The STMSACTION field is used to define the permitted operations. The following values are possible:

CRE: Create TemSe object

REA: Read TemSe object

DEL: Delete TemSe object

APP: Append TemSe object

MOD: Modify TemSe object This currently applies only to attributes as the data of the TemSe objects cannot be changed in the current version.

The STMSOWNER field is used to define the objects for which a user has authorization. The following values are possible:

OWN: Own TemSe objects

GRP: External TemSe objects in own client

OCL: TemSe objects in external clients

The STMSOBJECT field is used to specify the names of the TemSe objects that are to be tested during the authorization check.

Note

TemSe objects have names. The name is specified partly generically (that is with a (*) at the end).

TemSe objects can have any names. However, naming conventions are used, which are defined in the TST07 table (Naming Conventions for TemSe Objects). The spooler, for example, currently uses SPOOLnnnnn, where nnnnn is the spool request number.
