The following checks are performed when deciding what authority a user has to a specific message on the queue.

Retrieve the User Profile Details for the User running the job [Job User] if they exist and retrieve the following information:

Authorised to Send message

Does the Job User have a Manager [Job User Manager]

Check the value of the System Parameter - Authorisation System Active

If this is a Y then check the Job User User Profile Details Authorised to Send Message is a Y - see above. If the Authorised to Send Message is not a Y then the user will NOT be authorised to the message.

Retrieve the User who owns the message on the queue [Queue User] and the Manager associated with the message on the queue [Queue Manager].

If the Job User is NOT in the same as the Queue User then check the Public Authority for the message as follows:

If the Public Authority = All  then the Job User will have authority to the message.

If the Public Authority = Normal then the following checks are performed:

If the Job User the same as the Queue Manager then they will have authority to the message.

If the Job User in the list of Operator Profiles then they will have authority to the message.

If the Job User Manager is the same as the Queue Manager then the user will have authority to the message.

If the Public Authority = None then the Job User will only have authority to the message if they are the Queue Manager.
