Dataset Groups with extended user profile specific filter possibilities

As of today, IBM Change Tracker has no grouping or categorization capability. By adding more and more datasets of different teams or departments to change tracker control, the list of managed datasets may grow a lot and become very confusing. Also, not every change tracker user may be interested in all change tracker managed datasets.

A grouping facility could help organizing datasets or files to a logical group. These groups should be protectable by SAF. In the initial view of change tracker in zOSMF, only the groups the current user is permitted should be displayed. A group can consist of any number of datasets and files the responsible team chooses to add. Adding Datasets or files with a wildcard is self-evident.

Setting user specific filter and set that as a personal initial start view can help finding the necessary elements fast and makes the workflow more efficient.
