The MIE maintains a trimmed MSL Authorization Transaction table. The table records all MSL authorization events, along with a code that defines how the MSL item was authorized and/or how authorization was removed. The following codes are logged as part of each authorization / authorization removal event:
Code |
Definition |
AAAUTHORIZE |
MSL item was authorized by an Authorization Analyzer rule. |

MSL item was authorized either through the user interface (directly editing current authorization records or through mass update), or by an adjustment made due to a linked counter value change. |
