Instructional user codes expire at the end of the semester for which they are issued. Requests for access to CICS transactions are made on a DOS User Code Request form obtained from Computer Services. The signature of the employee's supervisor is required. If a transaction is administered by an office other than that of the requester, authorization from the administering office will also be required. The Manager of Systems Analysis and Programming will provide guidance in completing these forms.
Some transactions require authorization beyond a user code.
The Manager of Systems Analysis and Programming can supply the name of the appropriate administrator to contact. User codes are normally granted to individuals. Upon approval of the Director of Computer Services a user code may be issued for use by a group. User codes may not be transferred to another person or group. Exceptions to this policy must be endorsed by the appropriate Vice President and the Executive Vice President, Finance and Administration.
