Re: MAPICS - old user *MSGQ

Greg,
You should also look at the Group Job File, Printer Overrides and other
"security" type files. Unless you already have a procedure in place when
deleting a user, there are many files that do not get the profile removed
from XA files (COM, IFM, etc).  You would think that if you remove a user,
that it would look at the installed applications and remove all references
to that user (but it does not).

This would be a nice little enhancement for Infor to do to help with SOX
database cleanup, don't you think?

Eric
