Alan,
That is not true. Adopted authority is passed on in the call stack.
Say user PETER calls program A, that is owned by PAUL and has
USRPRF(*OWNER). During execution of A the combined authorities of PETER
and PAUL are used. When program A calls program B, that is owned by MARY
and has USRPRF(*OWNER), authorities of PETER, PAUL and MARY are used.
Exceptions:
- When a program has USEADPAUT(*NO) it 'breaks the chain';
- SQL statements; when you use SQL in your program and want to use
adopted authority you have to use SQL setting DYNUSRPRF(*OWNER);
- Stream files; filesystems other than QSYS.LIB have no notion of
adopted authority; you're on your own 'out there'.

You will have to do EXACTLY the same thing for Program B and whatever files
that program requires
