The issue is that DAF is processing some SMF records that the system does not automatically populate with the userid. The DAF source provides sample code for IEFUJI to get the userid from the RACF control blocks and copy it to the User Identification field of the SMF Common Exit Parameter Area.

Dear folks; I'm playing with DAF and I realized that the Userid field on the SMF records is blank. This means that I need to code an IEFUJI exit to update that field. Is there any sample IEFUJI with this executable code that someone can kindly share with me?. TIA, Giovanni
