Re: CPYSPLF from batch job

John, I don't believe you need a source license to acquire an individual source member from the Infor support site. Go to:

http://support.mapics.com/cgi-einfo/foxweb.exe/afdsrc?&tp=ct

and put in the source file name for the CL or program in question (you have to have a log in). You could then put the RTVJOBA command in the job immediately before the report program executes, and then put the CPYSPLF command in afterwards, along with a submit to do your update/maintenance.

That's one way. Another way is (as Jim Sansi suggested) to put it in a separate output queue and either manually pull it and process it through your modification process (Gag! But it is easy.). Or if you use Jim's suggestion, you could write a process to monitor that output queue and process the report when it appears.

We actually have used all 3 methods, plus a 4th where we had a job send the report automatically (using Cornerstone's Unifier product) when a job hit the output queue. But the 4th required (obviously) that we have the product.

John,

If you have a source license, you should have the source for the CL program
that runs the report. If so, you can add the RTVJOBA and the CPYSPLF to it.

Dave,

It doesn't matter to me which job I put the CPYSPLF in, but since I have
no way of knowing what the batch job name and number will be, I would
assume it would have to go in the batch job. Is it possible to modify
the batch job that gets created for this report?

John,

Maybe I misunderstood. Where are you doing the CPYSPLF? In the batch
job,
or in another job?

Dave,

Yes, but WHERE do I put this command? It needs to go in the batch job
because the batch job is different from my interactive job that
submitted it.
