Considerations for Profile Symbol Lines

• Values for Profile variables are specified in ICE (using the Customization option in the main ICE screen, entering IOA in the Product field, and then selecting Product Customization). The values are stored in member $PROFILE in the IOAENV library. For details on what values to specify for the Profile variables using ICE, see Profile Variables.
• Field lines contain values to be used for fields in IOA that are not part of a SHOW window (for example, a library name in a rule, job and mission definition entry panel). Field lines can be located in any of the following members:

  Table 41 Members that Can Contain Field Lines

  Member	Description
  $PROFILE	The field line indicates the default value supplied with the IOA installation.
  $PROFMOD	The field line indicates a value specified as part of on‑site customization of the Global profile. Field line specifications in $PROFMOD override specifications in $PROFILE.
  $userid	The field line indicates a value specified as part of a user profile.

• Filter field lines specify values for selection criteria fields in Show Window filters (For example, Y (Yes) or N (No) for field UTILITIES in the IOA Log Show Screen Filter window indicates whether messages from Control‑M/Tape utilities are displayed).
