If you are using the Spooled File Monitor (SPLMON) to write files to QNTC then this will be using the user CPPDMM by default unless you have specified an Owner in the File Output Device in your PPD (see above screenshot for an example where the Owner is specified as QNTCUSER).

Note: You must make sure that this user is recognised by the Windows Server where you wish to store your files - see QNTC Configuration for details.

Using the CRTPPD Command

Note: The supplied Folder Monitor Job Description FLRMON uses the CPPDMM user by default.
