I apologize. I answered the question that was asked rather than the question I 
should have answered. The correct answer is DON'T DO IT!

You would be handing the keys to the kingdom to an unvetted program. 

A malicious AC(1) program (in an APF library) can do ANYTHING. Anything. 
Anything it wants to do. It can grant itself read/write access to every dataset 
in your shop, and turn off RACF auditing of its subsequent actions. Is that 
what you want?

A non-malicious but less-than-optimally-written program can ACCIDENTALLY bring 
down z/OS.

If the program were supposed to be authorized it already would be.

Your question is equivalent to "there's some guy in the mailroom. How do I get 
him a company ID card that gives him access to every room in the building?" If 
he were supposed to have an all-access ID card he already would have one, or 
there would be a procedure in process to vet him and get him issued one.

Have you spoken with the vendor to make sure the code can be Linked with AC(1)?

There are some restrictions of what can use AC(1)

Are you getting any error messages?  Or function failures that makes you think 
LKED with AC(1) is needed?


Vendors will assist when you want to do these types of actions
