</div>
<p>The Presystem Request Program exit program is called when the user presses
the System Request key.</p>
<p>When a user presses the System Request key, the operating system calls the
user-written exit program through the registration facility. There are two
parameters used for input and output. After the exit programs from the
registration facility are called, the System Request menu is called based on
the value that is returned in the System Request menu display flag. This is the
first parameter. The second parameter contains the data the user entered on the
System Request user option line. When the user presses the the System Request
key an input line is displayed at the bottom of the screen. This allows the
user to enter one of the option numbers and relevant parameter data for any of
the options for the Systems Request menu. All data keyed into the input line,
including option numbers, will be passed to the exit programs. This data will
be passed and received from each of the exit programs called. This allows one
program to modify the data and pass it to the next program called. This data
will be passed to the user exit program in the CCSID of the job. The data that
the last Presystem Request program returns will the data that is passed to the
System Request menu. Normal error checking will be performed on the data at
that time.</p>
<p>This exit point supports eight exit programs. (For information about adding
an exit program to an exit point, see the <a href="reg1.htm">Registration
Facility APIs</a>.)</p>
<p>Before any of the exit programs in the registration facility are called, the
user profile for each user intending to use this function needs to be updated.
The Set Profile Exit Program (QWTSETPX) API needs to be called. This API will
set for the requested user profile which of the eight allowed exit programs to
call. The user can have from zero to all eight possible exit programs called.
No exit programs will be called until the QWTSETPX API is called to set the
values in the user profile. To display which exit programs will be called for a
particular user, the Retrieve Profile Exit Program (QWTRTVPX) API can be
called. (For more information about both of these APIs, see the <a href=
"wm1.htm">Work Management APIs</a>.)</p>
<p><strong>Notes:</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>It is recommended that a command line is not displayed from a presystem
request exit program. There may be functions that do not work as expected when
issued from this type of command line.<br><br></li>
<li>The Presystem Request exit point ignores any error messages that are sent
from the exit programs. If multiple exit program are registered, all programs
will be called regardless of errors that may occur.<br><br></li>
<li>The user-registered exit program will be called with only the first
parameter unless the Pass user option data flag in the Program data section is
turned on. If this flag is turned on, the user exit program will be called with
both of the parameters.<br><br></li>
<li>It is recommended that the Presystem Request exit program exist in a
library in the system auxiliary storage pool (ASP) or in a basic user ASP. It
might not be found if it exists in a library in an independent ASP.</li>

<h3>Authorities and Locks</h3>
<dl>
<dt><em>User Profile Authority</em></dt>
<dd>All object (*ALLOBJ) and security administrator (*SECADM)
special authorities are needed
to add exit programs to the registration facility
or to remove exit programs from the registration facility.</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Required Parameter Group</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>System Request menu display flag</strong></dt>
<dd>I/O; BINARY(4)
<p>Whether to display the System Request menu after the exit programs from the
registration facility have been called. The default value of 1 means that the
menu will be displayed. Any other value will mean not to display the menu. This
value will be passed to all the exit programs. The value returned from the last
program called is the value that will be used to determine if the menu should
be displayed.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Optional Parameter Group</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>System Request user option data</strong></dt>
<dd>I/O; CHAR(128)
<p>The user-entered data from the System Request user option field. The default
is all blanks.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Program Data</h3>
<p>When you register the exit program, the following is required to enable
passing of the System Request option data for the program data field.</p>
<table border width="80%">

<h3><a name="HDRSREQD0">Field Descriptions</a></h3>
<p><strong>Pass user option data flag.</strong> This flag determines how many
parameters need to be passed on the call to the user exit program. If the flag
is set to a 1, then both of the parameters will be passed on the call to the
exit program. If the flag is any other value, only the first parameter will be
passed.</p>
