Interactive entry allows you to enter commands individually
i5/OS™ provides
many menus and displays to allow interactive entry, including the Programmer
Menu, the Command Entry display, command prompt displays, and the Programming
Development Manager (PDM) Menu. If you use the i5/OS security functions described in Security - Reference
, your ability
to use these displays is controlled by the authority given to you in your
user profile. User profiles are generally created and maintained by a system
security officer.
A frequently used source entry method is the source entry utility (SEU), which is part of the WebSphere® Development Studio. You can also use the Edit File (EDTF) command to enter or change CL commands in a database source file. However, EDTF does not provide the integrated CL command prompting support that is built into SEU.
