Patch Solution ============== This patch introduces a new Kernel option XUSER DIV CHG, menu text: Change my Division. It has been added to the TBOX on the COMMON Menu. Here is the Option description: The Kernel option "Change my Division" allows you to change the division to which you are currently assigned. This option performs the same function as entering your current division at the signon prompt "Select DIVISION: default division //". If you only have one division to select from, XUSER DIV CHG will show you your current division and indicate that you cannot change it. ================ The following NOIS calls are also corrected: HIN-0801-41754, FRE-0801-60466, BAC-0701-41456 The problem: In the User Inquiry option, the CPRS Parameter Info is for the wrong person.
