Fix text

The IAO working with the systems programmer will ensure the Facility Matrix Table for Quest NC-Pass is proper defined using the following example: *****NCPASS FAC(USERxx=NAME=NCPASS,PGM=NCS,ID=nn,ACTIVE,NOASUBM) FAC(NCPASS=LUMSG,STMSG,NORNDPW,WARNPW,MODE=FAIL) FAC(NCPASS=LOG(SMF,INIT,MSG,SEC9),UIDACID=8,LOCKTIME=000)

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
