The Things that Make Up this ExampleTo Execute this Example

This form (VL_SAM139) initiates the production of a simple report of all the employees that work in a selected department. A user specified message may also be included on the report.

The report can be submitted onto a report queue or it can be printed while the user waits. The report is actually produced by tier aware reporting function VSAM138. The example demonstrates:
  • Some programming techniques that can be used in tier managed reporting applications.
  • Use of the PRINT (print) and DATA (database) tiers.
  • How the use of a tier scheme can automatically allow report functions to be started on the tier that will offer them the best possible processing throughput.
The easiest way to understand all of the preceding points is to cut/paste/compile the examples and then combine execution of them with reading of the comments contained within them.
