I did follow through with the "smitty user" process and it all looks good compared to a user added using the root id. I filled in the follow fields and only those fields and left the others either blank or at the default.

User Name
Primary group
Group SET
Initial Program
User Info

Below are the results of
Code:
lsuser

run against both ids.

User created with my id using sudo.

Code:
root@foobar:"/home/root/dr $ "lsuser timer
timer id=217 pgrp=usr groups=usr home=/home/timer shell=/bin/ksh gecos=Test user login=true su=true rlogin=true daemon=true admin=false
sugroups=ALL admgroups= tpath=nosak ttys=ALL expires=0 auth1=SYSTEM auth2=NONE umask=22 registry=files SYSTEM=compat

Id created using the root id.

Code:
root@woody:"/home/root/dr $ "lsuser timer2

NAME

       true, false - Returns a standard exit value

SYNOPSIS

       true

       false

STANDARDS

       Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:

       true:  XCU5.0

       false:  XCU5.0

       Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags.

DESCRIPTION

       The true command returns a 0 (zero) exit value. The false command returns a nonzero exit value. These commands are usually used in input to
       shell commands.

NOTES

       The special built-in utility : (colon) is sometimes more efficient than the true command.

EXIT STATUS

       [Tru64 UNIX]  The nonzero value returned by the false command may vary from system to system.

EXAMPLES

       To construct a loop in a shell procedure, enter: while true do	   date      sleep 60 done

       This procedure displays the date and time once a minute.  To stop it, press the Interrupt key sequence.
