Export Data (on a Regular Basis) (daxch0234m000)

Use this session to run the export program to transfer data on a regular basis from LN tables to sequential ASCII files.

An export on a regular basis is especially useful in a multisite environment. In these situations, it is important that no run is lost or overwritten.

The details of an exchange scheme are defined in the master data and export business objects.

Note: The export can also run as part of a batch job.

You can click Add to Job to start the Job Manager.

Field Information

Exchange Scheme

The exchange scheme code.

Note: The exchange scheme is created in the Exchange Schemes (daxch0501m000) session.
Exchange Scheme

The exchange scheme code.

Note: The exchange scheme is created in the Exchange Schemes (daxch0501m000) session.
Processing Type

The processing type of the export procedure.

Allowed values

New run

Use this option to start a new exchange program

Restart previous run

Use this option to restart the previous runnumber

Reprocess rejected rec's

Use this option to reprocess rejected records. LN stores the rejected records in additional files:

  • Rejected Due to Error. This file contains records that are rejected because of database related problems such as index or domain errors.
  • Rejected Due to condition. This file contains records that are rejected because return values of conditions return as false.

This option can not be used if the exchange is based on an audit procedure.

Note: The option Reprocess rejected records can only be used during an import procedure.
Continue interrupted run

Use this option to continue an interrupted exchange program. The program starts at the beginning of the table relation that was not completed. You can only restart the import if more than one batch line exists. The restart can begin at the start of an incomplete batch line. If only one batch line exists, this option is the same as a complete restart.

Overrule Batch Company

If this check box is selected, the batch companies that are defined in the Batches (daxch0104m000) session are overruled.

Overrule Batch Company

The LN company that is used instead of the batch company.

Note: This company can only be defined if the Overrule Batch Company check box is selected.
Wait for <CR> with Messages

If this check box is selected, the export program waits for a <CR> at the end of the messages. The messages remain on screen until you press enter.

If this check box is cleared, the export program continues without the interaction of the user. You can use this option for an export that runs overnight.

Suppress Export Done Messages

If this check box is selected, LN suppresses the messages that indicate that the export procedure is completed. If this check box is cleared, an Export Done message is sent, but only if there is a subscription for the batch. You can use this option to test or run the export, which is useful when you test an export in a multisite environment.

Compress ASCII Files

If this check box is selected, the ASCII files are compressed after they are exported.

Note: Only use this option if the ASCII files that will be exported are compressed using the LN compress program.
Start of Audit Range

Specify the start date and time of the audit range.

Export to Current Date/Time

If this check box is selected, the end of the audit range is set to the current date and time.

All transactions between the specified start time and date, and the current time and date are exported. This is important if the export procedure is part of a job. Every time the job is started the end of the audit range will be the current time and date. The length of the interval is therefore not fixed.

Note: The End of audit range fields do no have to be specified.
End of Audit Range

Specify the end date and time of the audit range.

Runnumber to be Exported/Redone

The run number of the exchange scheme that is exported or redone.
