hi,

in my application we have added below code to make these attributes input/output type:
put_pmo = pymqi.pmo(Options=CMQC.MQPMO_SYNCPOINT)
if attrib_name in ['UserIdentifier', 'AccountingToken', 'ApplIdentityData','PutApplType', 'PutApplName', 'PutDate', 'PutTime', 'ApplOriginData']:
put_pmo['Options'] += CMQC.MQPMO_SET_ALL_CONTEXT

however after adding this if user sets only ApplIdentityData, remaining field in MQ manager such as putDate, PutTime,PutApplName etc is blank.

to avoid this if user sets this value( in our extension point where pymq library is not available )added below code :

today = date.today()
d2 = today.strftime("%B %d, %Y")
logger("d2:%s"%d2)
message_header_attributes_map['PutDate'] = bytes(d2.ljust(24),'utf-8')

it shows Date as Nov 25 ,35559 which seems invalid.
I have 2 questions:
1. Is there any way where if user sets only 1 field such ApplIdentityData and rest fields of the message should be set as default value.
2. How can user set today's date and time in extension point why it is showing Nov 25 ,35559 how to set the putDate and putTime value

No. Regular applications should not be using MQPMO_SET_ALL_CONTEXT.

Have you read the IBM MQ Knowledge Center?

If you use Origin Context (MQOO_SET_ALL_CONTEXT & MQPMO_SET_ALL_CONTEXT) then your application is responsible for setting the following 8 MQMD fields:
- PutApplType
- PutApplName
- PutDate
- PutTime
- ApplOriginData
- UserIdentifier
- AccountingToken
- ApplIdentityData

If you use Identity Context (MQOO_SET_IDENTITY_CONTEXT & MQPMO_SET_IDENTITY_CONTEXT): then your application is responsible for setting the following 3 MQMD fields:
- UserIdentifier
- AccountingToken
- ApplIdentityData

PutDate and PutTime are character fields of length 8.
Code:
   MQCHAR8   PutDate;           /* Date when message was put */
   MQCHAR8   PutTime;           /* Time when message was put */

Just to finish that thought.

PutDate and PutTime are character fields of length 8 with the following format.

PutDate:
The format used for the date when this field is generated by the queue manager is:
YYYYMMDD

PutTime:
The format used for the time when this field is generated by the queue manager is:
HHMMSSTH
where the characters represent (in order):
HH
hours (00 through 23)
MM
minutes (00 through 59)
SS
seconds (00 through 59; see note)
T
tenths of a second (0 through 9)
H
hundredths of a second (0 through 9)

For more details see PutDate and PutTime in IBM Docs.

Cheers,
Morag

Hi sayli.jadhav,
What are the valid cases for users needing to set these attributes? The MQMD context attributes are important for identity, security, traceability and support. Apps should not change any of them from the default values set by MQ, unless they have a very very good reason to do so.

More importantly, will your use case (for faking MQMD date/time) pass internal and external audit? IMHO, not likely.

It also needs to be set to UTC date/time, not local date/time.
