Re: User joblogs

Not really a good idea anymore.

The technique you are discussing is losing its usefulness as IBM
starts qualifying system calls. So for example, a 90 - Sign Off from
the IBM provided Main menu may start or already be using a qualified
call and not even see your custom command in the library ahead of
QSYS.

The reason for the change is to ensure integrity of the OS and to
prevent "Trojan horse" type programs.

You need to either make use of CHGCMDDFT, or the command exit point
Rob mentions.

Instead of changing the command default in QSYS, I would recommend that you create another library for changed IBM commands, copy the command to that library and change it there.
Then, use the CHGSYSVAL  command to change the system portion of the library list to have your new library ahead of QSYS.  That way, your command will be executed and the IBM command will not have been changed.
This is also good for documentation if you upgrade the OS as you will have all of your changed commands there so that you can redo the changes on the new release.

Dave,
In the CL program you run every day to change IBM's default system
settings to your custom settings, add these statements:
QSYS/CHGCMDDFT CMD(QSYS/SIGNOFF) NEWDFT('LOG(*LIST)')
QSYS/MONMSG MSGID(CPF0000 CPC0000 CPD0000)

Everyone who signs off will produce a joblog of their session unless
they prompt with F4 and change to *NOLIST.
