ACS - Spool Files Component - Allow defining outque residing in IASP library

We have outque libraries that reside in SYSBAS as well as in the iASP.

But using the ACS Spool Files component, we cannot get to our outque libraries in the IASP. Only in the SYSBAS libraries. Even though we created the spool files that are put in both outques. We can only see spool files in the sysbas library with the spool file component.

    Thank you for submitting your Idea to enhance IBM i Access Client Solutions (ACS).

    A user profile that specifies a job description with the Initial ASP group (INLASPGRP) set to the IASP is able to view and work with spooled files located in output queues in libraries on an IASP using ACS Printer Output.
    After evaluating and prioritizing this request, we cannot deliver your requested enhancement in the near future, so it is being declined.
