RE: Problems with authority...

Chuck - 

Create a CL command that either holds or releases *JOBQ QBATCH based on a
parameter.

For example:  WRKQBATCH STATUS(*HOLD) or WRKQBATCH STATUS(*RELEASE)

Compile the command processing program while signed on as QSECOFR and
specify *OWNER for the user profile parameter. This will enable the
authority adopting feature.

Grant *USE authority for the command and command processing program to the
user(s) you want to have this function...

Everything should work just fine then.
