ERQ is an automated RACF administration & reporting utility that is
simple, powerful, and best of all, inexpensive! ERQ is ISPF driven. With
the push of a key, reports may be produced, RACF commands may be automatically
generated, and ‘clean-up’ tasks may be streamlined - with
little or no training necessary. Extensive field help messages guide the
user through the product. In Addition, ERQ enables RACF analysts to create
their own custom RACF applications using a set of straightforward ISPF
services.
Designed and developed for RACF Administrators by RACF Administrators
with over 25 years of continuous hands-on experience - ERQ includes all
of the online functions necessary to automate the entire security administration
process, including many options not found in other third party tools.
All ERQ Online Services screens are completely customizable, having been
built using ERQ Programming Services, it is a snap to add new functions
and/or modify existing ones.
ERQ allows you to customize the screens with the functions that you use
most often. ERQ provides all of the tools you need to manage and monitor
security in one easy-to-use package.
ERQ is also an invaluable programming aide that retrieves RACF information
for REXX and/or CLIST custom written RACF applications. ERQ increases
productivity by providing you with easy access to both the live and archived
RACF database.
ERQ provides a library of sample executable applications that the user
can easily modify to fit their environment’s needs. Administrators
now have the ability to write their own applications without seeking the
assistance of the system programmers.
"I can teach someone to use the functions that I wrote with ERQ in
less than ten minutes. If I am out, they can do just about anything
using the ERQ panels that I have created."

"Initially, I was skeptical of ERQ because it was so simple to use.
But because the screens are so streamlined, easy to use and have straight-forward
commands, ERQ was a perfect fit for our RACF administration needs...the
simplicity of ERQ and the ëhigh-level qualifierí reporting are two
of the key reasons we purchased the tool."

"RACF contains a great deal of information associated with each userid. With
ERQ, I can just produce a basic list of a userid and only the data
I need, eliminating from the view any fields that have no direct impact
on the task at hand."
