The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Good morning,
new job and given the assignment to revamp a screen pgm that the whole
company uses to make it more efficient, less CPU.
There are 12 different fields a user can fill in to search for the info they
want. Plus there are fields they can check off for other criteria. Total
about 25 different fields on the screen.
Currently, there are about 80 logicals that are used for all the different
combinations of fields to search on. The first SUBR of the pgm does various
validations against all the possible fields, then depending on that result
does a SETLL for the appropriate logical. Then a second SUBR checks the
fields again and depending on that does a READ, READE or READP against the
logical that was staged.
They want to select the data the first time through to a type of work file,
then as more information is filled in by the user, query or read against
that work file, drilling down further for each field that is populated by
the user. They want to reduce CPU and the amount of logicals.
I was thinking of doing a query against the work file as it gets drilled
down.
Wondering how the super users that use this forum would take this on. Any
input would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Sharon
