To assign capabilities to accounts, groups, users, and programs

To assign capabilities to accounts, groups, users, and programs, use the NEWACCT, NEWGROUP, and NEWUSER commands. For example, if you are the system manager or the account manager of the PAYROLL account, enter the following to assign capabilities to a new user named GEORGE:

   NEWUSER GEORGE.PAYROLL;CAP=IA,BA,ND,SF,

To alter capabilities

Alter capabilities for existing accounts, groups, and users with ALTACCT, ALTGROUP, and ALTUSER.

For example, if you are the system manager or the account manager of the PAYROLL account, enter the following to alter the capabilities of your new user named GEORGE from the default values:

   ALTUSER GEORGE.PAYROLL;CAP=IA,BA,ND,SF,GL,AM,OP,PM,DI

Now, in addition to the standard default user capabilities, GEORGE has the additional capabilities of group librarian (GL) and account manager (AM).
