Profile Attribute in the Screen Definition

IOA is installed with default profile attributes assigned to various fields. You can change these defaults as follows:

A field can be defined with a profile attribute by adding parameter PROF=YES to the field macro definition in the screen definition member in the MSGENG library. For example:

NAME=SSCHROL,ATTR=UH,LTH=4,PROF=YES

For instructions on how to change the screen format, see Recommended Steps for Screen Modification.

Under certain screens, parameter PROF designates the name of the profile variable. When YES is specified, the field name is used as the Profile Variable name. If you want to change the profile attributes of these screens, contact BMC Customer Support.

IOA profile capability can be applied to fields in the header, footer, and windows of each screen, but not to fields that are part of a scrollable area on the screen. If you want to apply the profile capability to a field in a scrollable area, contact BMC Customer Support.
