Print ASCII File (daxch0202m000)

Run the Print ASCII File (daxch0202m000) session to print an ASCII file with ASCII file fields of an exchange scheme. You can use this session to test the readability of an ASCII file before importing. You can also use this session to view the contents of a file created by the Export module.

This session uses the ASCII file format of the exchange scheme. You must set up the Master Data module before you can use this session.

The table and field relations are not required to run this session. When an ASCII file is being examined before import, the table relations (import) can be useful but are not required. Because table relations are not required, you must specify the physical ASCII file name.

When the field numbers to be printed are not specified, all the fields in the ASCII file are printed.

This process can also run as part of a job.

To print the ASCII file and ASCII file fields:

  1. Specify the code of the exchange scheme and ASCII file. The physical ASCII file is automatically entered.
  2. Specify a range of field numbers with a valid range of values to print part of the physical ASCII file.
  3. Define the field numbers that must be printed.
  4. Click Print to start the process.
