Assigning Capabilities 

To assign capabilities to accounts, groups, users, and programs 

To assign capabilities to accounts, groups, users, and programs, use the
NEWACCT, NEWGROUP, and NEWUSER commands.  For example, if you are the
system manager or the account manager of the PAYROLL account, enter the
following to assign capabilities to a new user named GEORGE:

     NEWUSER GEORGE.PAYROLL;CAP=IA,BA,ND,SF, 

To alter capabilities 

Alter capabilities for existing accounts, groups, and users with ALTACCT,
ALTGROUP, and ALTUSER.

For example, if you are the system manager or the account manager of the
PAYROLL account, enter the following to alter the capabilities of your
new user named GEORGE from the default values:

     ALTUSER GEORGE.PAYROLL;CAP=IA,BA,ND,SF,GL,AM,OP,PM,DI 

Now, in addition to the standard default user capabilities, GEORGE has
the additional capabilities of group librarian (GL) and account manager
(AM).
