Table Relations (Import) (daxch0521m000)

To create a relation between LN tables, logical ASCII files, and physical ASCII files by batch in an exchange scheme, run the Table Relations (Import) (daxch0521m000) session. In the table relation, you define the logical ASCII files to which the data from the LN table must be transferred. Assign a name to the physical ASCII file.

You can also run an external program or a LN session as part of an exchange scheme, instead of using the exchange import functionality for a table relation.

You can create the relations at field level in the Field Relations (Import) (daxch0522m000) session.

The Specific menu contains these options:

  • Field Relations (Import) (Ctrl+Shift+1):

    Starts the Field Relations (Import) (daxch0522m000) session.

  • (De)activate Table Relations (Ctrl+Shift+G):

    Starts the (De)activate Table Relations (daxch1221m000) session.

To create a table relation:

  1. Specify the sequence number, LN table, logical ASCII file, and the physical ASCII file name.
  2. Select the Active check box to make the relation active and define an execute condition.
  3. Select in Permitted Operations, the action check boxes that are permitted for this table relation, and the appropriate conditions.
  4. Select Stop Condition to activate the stop mechanism and define the appropriate stop condition.
  5. Select Import via Data Access Layer to use the functionality programmed into the Data Access Layer (DAL).
  6. Select External Program check box and specify the program name in the Program Name field to use an external program. To run an LN session, clear the External Program check box and specif a session or object code in the Program Name field.
  7. Specify the number of the index if one of the ASCII file fields is based on increment.
  8. Click Edit Text on the toolbar to start the text editor to add more information.
