RELATED IDEAS

Add commands that can be used to automate managing PDF MAP Entries. ADDPDFMAPE, CHGPDFMAPE, DLTPDFMAPE.

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

Currently to manage PDF MAP Entries the WRKPDFMAPE command must be used interactively which makes automating this process using CL commands not possible. The QPQAPME API could be used but there is significant work in developing this process, the unique sequence numbers and no *NEXT or *NEW option would require entries to be retrieved before a new entry could be created.

The day to day management of users is time consuming and to script the new user process is a good time saver.  Once automated the function can then be delegated to non IT persons thereby saving more time.

    It would also be helpful to have the ability to search through the distribution methods, like email, and identify email addresses that are receiving the distributed report.
