Why do you want to know which application put hte message in a queue? In fact one shoudl not be allowed to interject data while in transmitting. If you want for your satisfaction, ask your developer to put the app name in some MDMD field and check that from mqexplorer or any other monitoring tool.
But this is not a good practice to look at data in a queue.

Or use the Putting Application Field in the MQMD (which is the header I assume you meant) that the queue manager fills in automatically.
Alternatively if the OP wants to know what applications are connected to a queue and putting messages, they can use any of the discussed techniques to identify connected applications.
But I agree, it's the sort of task you do when there's a problem rather than routinely.

Talk to your RACF Team (or whatever flavour of security used at your site) and ask them what is authorised to the profiles etc.

Check the Security Exit Logs ( Only If Implemented ) for who/when got acceptance/rejection of connection on respective Qmgr.
* You can use the dspmqaut to check the access levels on MQ Objs. IFF you know the principle/group id, at all.

If messages are not flowing through the Queue(s) ( assuming MQ stand correct ) and messages are piling on the Queue(s) then Some Application Team would Stand/Come to/Ping MQ Guys.... then Ofcourse you would come to know who is that application !!!

As I said further up this thread (if you looked) you don't need to do much to know which application put a message on a queue.
And don't suggest the use of dspmqauth on mainframe. Seriously. You just sound silly.
