AS400 menu opton security
Hello
I need to be able to set up security at the menu and menu option level so that I can limit users to specific menus and menu options based upon their user id.
I would like to be able to do this thru a custom program written in CLLE or RPGILE. This program would be interfaced when the user signs on to the AS400, and when the user takes a menu option or goes to a menu.
Also, do you know of a way to set up a trigger for this custom security program ? Otherwise, I would have to add a call statement to each CLLE program, and there are 100s of programs so I am trying to avoid this.
Thank you for your help

Answer Wiki:
Nick,
I can't see how you can avoid having to add a call to all of your programs to access a security check. Perhaps someone will come up with a solution, but I can only tell you how my system manages security. All Calls are routed via the security program and include the next programs name to be called if security is accepted.
I will look forward to see what other solutions are out there.
Neil.

What kind of “menu” are you using? *DSPF, *PGM or *UIM?
The three would be best handled in probably three different ways.
