If you're asking why she needs to run IDCAMS APF-authorized, it's because 
IDCAMS is normally run APF-authorized, and although some IDCAMS functions will 
work if the program is not running authorized, others (e.g., DCOLLECT) won't 
work without APF-authorization.

If you're asking something else, please clarify.
