Bud,

I know how to figure it out, but it takes a day or two to work through it -
it's not a trivial task.  The request string that MAPICS passes in makes
sense to the MAPICS request processor AMZPBJ and the batch control program
it transfers to, AXZBJ.  They don't ship the source for AXZBJ any more, but
it would only help you understand what the formatting means a little anyway.
Basically, the string passed in serves mainly as a pointer to the JOBACT
record previously created for the job.  You need to reverse-engineer how to
build the JOBACT record and the submit string, and then you'll be able to
make it work.  Usually the simplest way to do this kind of thing, IF you
have source, is to take apart the interactive prompt for what you want to do
and replace the screen handling with another source of input, whether it's
hard-coding, one or more data areas, or a record in a file.  Then use
STRMAPICS/ENDMAPICS to set the environment for your modified prompt and
you're good to go.  Good luck!

Subject: Auto Submit Order Release with Shop Packet

OK, since nobody seems to know how to submit the "Create Shop Packet" from a
custom program, how about the "Order Release with Shop Packet?"    Does
anyone know how to do that?     I can't believe MAPICS makes it so difficult
to submit a simple report from custom code!!   *$&#^@$%#       I held the
JOBQ and submitted the job, then went and looked at the Job Log for the
Submitted Job..... it makes no sense to me.... Not even a normal AS400
command.   :-(      Can anyone interpret this s____ for me?
