Re: AP check print spool file question

We are on V8.3.1. There are two CL programs that need to reviewed and
possibly modified for custom print file overrides, SYSOVRC and SYS501C.
SYSOVRC performs print file overrides if the job is submitted and runs in
Batch.

SYS501C performs the print file overrides if the job is run interactively
from the menu.

Since many menu options have a run time option on how the job is
run(Batch/Interactive) we add any custom print file overrides to both of
these programs. There is also documentation available from Infor support
on this subject.

Here is sample code snippet from SYSOVRC that performs an override for our
Invoice form.

IF (&W1PGM *EQ 'BIL550B') THEN(DO)
OVRPRTF FILE(BIL550O) PAGESIZE(66 132) LPI(6) CPI(10) OVRFLW(65) +
FORMTYPE('INVOICE') HOLD(*YES) SAVE(*YES)
ENDDO

One "gotcha" is determining the value of variable &W1PGM that is passed as
a parameter to SYSVORC and SYS501C. It is not always what you would
think it should be and make take some detective work to determine. If the
literal value in the IF statement does not match the value in variable
&W1PGM the override will not work. Hope this helps.
