Create Object List

How to Get There

From the Work with Object Lists panel, press F6.

What it Does

The Create Object List panel allows you to create an Object List. An Object list is a list of names of objects. These lists of objects are attached to Users or Locations on Object Rules. These rules help protect objects from outside access.

Field Descriptions

Object List

Enter a name for the Object List.

Type

Specify the type of the Object List. An Object List can be one of the following types:

QSYS The list contains objects in an IBM i library.
IFS The Object List contains objects from the IFS.

To select an Object List type, press F4 to display the Select Object List Type window. Highlight a list type and press Enter to save your selection.

ASP Group

This is the name of an ASP Group. It is used in rule evaluation to determine if an object referenced in a transaction is the one specified on the object entries for this list.

The valid values are:

Name The name of a valid iASP device.
*SYSBAS The Object List entries refer to those objects in *SYSBAS.
*ALL The Object List entries refer to those objects in any namespace.
Description

Enter a brief description of the Object List.

When you press Enter to add the Object List, the message Object List successfully created displays at the bottom of the Work with Object Lists panel.
