An operator is a user who runs the job. When you edit an operator ID, any existing job definition that uses the operator ID is automatically updated to reflect the edits you make.
For example, there is an operator named Ann Smith with an ID of SMITHA. There are three jobs that use the operator ID SMITHA. The operator marries and changes her name to Ann Johnson. You change her operator ID to JOHNSONA. The three jobs that used the operator ID SMITHA are automatically changed to use the operator ID JOHNSONA.
To edit an operator ID:
- Select Tools > Options > NCOA/Link.
- Click the Operator IDs tab.
- Select the operator ID you want to edit and click Edit.
- Make any necessary changes. After completing all changes, click OK.
