Operational Assistant Attention-Key-Handling (nongroup jobs) (QEZAST) API

Default Public Authority: *USE

Threadsafe: No

The Operational Assistant Attention-Key-Handling (QEZAST) API uses the GO ASSIST command to display the Operational Assistant menu (ASSIST). If you want your users to access the Operational Assistant menu by selecting an option from your application menus, you can add the control language (CL) statement CALL QEZAST to your application. This API can only be used in an interactive job.

This API can be used in place of the Operational Assistant Attention-Key-Handling (QEZMAIN) API when you do not want the Attention key to bring up the ASSIST menu in a group job.
