Re-enabling a disabled user profile

To reenable a disabled user profile:

You need to have *secofr or *secadm as your user class (usually QSECOFR is what people use).

Type WRKUSRPRF and the user profile name to be reenabled.  Press Enter. Option 2 by the user profile name and press Enter.
The fourth line down will say "STATUS" *DISABLED.  Change this to *ENABLED.  If the user has totally forgotten their password, you would type a new password in the second line (User password field), and on the third line change the "Set Password to Expired" parameter to *YES.  This will force the user to sign on with their user profile and password the same, but then force them to change it.
