1.INTRODUCTION

1. INTRODUCTION

The present document describes the functional specification of the Transmission Management System -hereinafter EDItranGT- version 1.0 of the communications platform

EDItran OS400.

The goal of EDItranGT v1.0 if providing a mechanism that allows the administrator or EDItran

user planning the transmissions of the application files (for both transmission or reception), so

that we can choose the periodicity of sends/receptions automatically, as well as determine the

action to be performed when there are failed attempts of transmission or reception.

The parameterization of temporality is performed by scheduling the sends and receptions by

associating each session to a date or a set of dates. The management of this system is made

by means of menu options detailed below.

To access EDItran/GT, we must execute the command EDIGT. Then, will be displayed the

EDItran/GT main menu.

2.MAIN MENU

2. MAIN MENU

The product is managed with this menu. Once EDItran/GT is installed, we need to define the

parameters for the local installation (local environment) and for the SESSIONS that are going to

be used.

2.1 Starting EDItrangt

To boot the planner, we have to type the option 0 in EDItranGT main menu. As a result of

this, in the EDItran subsystem is submitted a job named PFTAMSCDE.

The function of this job is periodically scanning the defined profiles file, and performing the

planned execution.

2.2 Stopping EDITRANGT subsystem

We can stop the planner typing the option 4 in the EDItran/GT main menu.

From this screen we can manage the parameters of the local environment, and also the

transmission planner and the transmission manager.

3.1 Local environment

With the option 1 of the administrator, we will display the screen that allows the

management of the local environment.

LOCAL ENVIRONMENT PARAMETERS

Where the fields have the following meaning:

LOCAL CODE (CÓDIGO-LOCAL): identification number of the EDItran user entity.

LOCAL NAME (NOMBRE LOCAL): literal that refers to the name of the EDItran user entity.

CYCLE INTERVAL (INTERVALO DEL CICLO): delay of the planner (in seconds). This is the

time between each revisión of the planned sessions table.

3.2. Transmissions planner

We can not plan if EDIgt is running.

With the option 2 of the administrator, we will display the screen that allows managing the

sessions.

EDITRAN/GT 6

3.ADMINISTRATOR

We have to specify the parameters that identify the EDItran session (local code, remote code

and application), and the desired option (Registration (Alta), Consultation (Consulta),

Unsubscription (Baja) or Modification (Modificación)). The meaning of the fields is the following:

LOCAL CODE (CÓDIGO-LOCAL): identification number of the EDItran user entity. With this

code, it will be recognized by all the entities interconnected to EDItran (if there are blanks,

the local environment is the general one).

REMOTE CODE (CÓDIGO-REMOTO): identification of the remote EDItran installation (for

example NIF number of the entity).

APPLICATION (APLICACIÓN): code of the EDItran application of the session.

CAR/EMI/INIC/REC: request for uploading, transmitting, initializating and receiving.

If we specify a generic option, will be displayed all the registered sessions.

This causes in the remote node a downloading of a file with fixed format and with the

specified length (in this case 72).

Binary (B-Binario): files with no log format, they don’t need length.

Transmit EDItran/G files (Emitir Ficheros EDItran/G (S/N)):

Indicates whether are used or not the files defined in the profiles of EDItran/g.

If we choose “S”, EditranGT will be used only as a planner for the date/time of send.

Option “N” allows choosing the following options:

By library/folder (Por Librería/Directorio): Library containing the files to be sent.

By creation date (Por fecha de creación) (only for native files systems AS/400): The files from the library indicated in the previous field, created from the entered date,
