Processing effect

For UNIX/Windows platforms: AP177 reads the APDISTRIB table and pulls the records with PULL-FOR-FR-FL = Y (Yes) and inserts them into the APFRIEXP table. At the same time, the form sets the PULL-FOR-FR-FL to N (No) in APDISTRIB. Then AP177 reads the APDISCACC table and pulls the records with PULL-FOR-FR-FL = Y (Yes) and inserts them into the APFRIEXP table. At the same time the form sets the PULL-FOR-FR-FL to N (No) in APDISCACC.

You then need to write a form that reads the APFRIEXP table and updates your non-Lawson retail systems.

For the IBM i platform: AP177 reads the DBAPAPD table and pulls the records with PLFRFL = Y (Yes) and inserts them into the DBAPAFX table. At the same time, the form sets the PLFRFL to N (No) in DBAPAPD. Then AP177 reads the DBAPDSK table and pulls the records with PLFRFL = Y (Yes) and inserts them into the DBAPAFX table. At the same time the form sets the PLFRFL to N (No) in DBAPDSK.

You then need to write a form that reads the DBAPAFX table and updates your non-Lawson retail systems.
