Member level locking allows SCLM administrators to stop users from modifying members that belong to other users. To implement member level locking, perform the following steps:

• Change the FLMCNTRL macro in the project definition to specify the parameters MEMLOCK=Y, CONTROL, and ADMINID.
• Reassemble the project definition.

The user you specify in the ADMINID parameter will be the default SCLM administrator and will be able to add other SCLM administrators using the SCLM Admin option. See Maintaining SCLM administrators (option A) for more information.

When member level locking is enabled, you will be able to edit a member if any of the following conditions is true:

• You are the default SCLM administrator (ADMINID parameter).
• You are defined as an SCLM administrator (option A).
• The accounting record doesn't exist at the development level.
• The accounting record exists at the development level and your user ID matches the change user ID on the accounting level.

If another user needs to modify the member, either the SCLM administrator or the user who last updated the member (Change User ID on the accounting record) can transfer ownership using the Transfer option in option 3.1. See Transfer ownership.
