RE: User ID in the IM Transactions instead of Workstation ID

Yes, I agree. (This solution occurred to me after I sent the last reply.)
This is a solution we use with PaperLess (a.k.a. MDCC) and the shopfloor
data terminals (PC's), but it doesn't allow a second session, so that's the
only place we use named Client sessions.

(I named my at-home PC session, then got "hung" when I was doing some
maintenance work and got that lovely "waiting for reply from QSYSOPR"
message and couldn't open the second session to see what the problems was!)

It has at least allowed us to track transactions when the transactions come
in via PMC....

DO NOT name the sessions in Client Access. We tried to identify source of
transactions this way and brought system to its knees. TCP/IP network and
MAPICS cannot resolve naming issues for multiple sessions on PC with
different names.  What to do, still an open issue with us also.
