The common Log-In Application provides the RACF authentication interface for web applications. The common Log-In Application carries your User Id and Password to the mainframe. The RACF authentication is made and the result returned to the page. Additional functionality of this page includes changing passwords at any time or correcting expired passwords.

Several BSSO supported web applications use the common Log-In Application for authentication. These web applications provide an automatic link to the common Log-In Application. A successful log-in routes you to the web application you requested. For this reason, it is important that you bookmark the first page of the web application after your log-in. If you bookmark the common Log-In Application by mistake, you will receive a web page informing you of this error.  A screen capture of this error message is available at the end of this page.  If you encounter problems with the common Log-In application, an e-mail link to the Service Desk is located at the bottom of every page.  When reporting a problem, be sure to include the web application you were trying to access and the problem you are having.
