Intermate iSeries, i5, AS/400 =Sort Spooled File, Sort Definition, NameThe Sort definition name

M WARNING M

Even though *DEFAULT is the default value it is most likely WRONG. *DEFAULT will

place the temporary spooled files on the outq where the printer is attached and making it impossible to make them run through the P=Send E-mail function.

Form type:The form type entered here should be used as condition for a 1. Merge with overlay following this AFC definition. The formtype could typically be FNSHREADY (Finish ready).

If you use an E-mail finishing definition this screen will appear:

Seqnbr Function
10.0	C	Prepare for Finishing
		Prepare for E-mail requires settings for
		print that will not be send.
		Output queue non E-mail print .	__________
		Library	__________
		Form type	__________
F3=Exit			F12=Cancel

On this screen you specify on which output queue you want to place the pages, that cannot be e-mailed (no receiver was found). This should normally be an AFC monitored output queue so that a InterForm400® merge and print can be done.

M WARNING M

Make sure, that you are not creating a loop in Auto Forms Control when you insert a

finishing definition. If you e.g. create new spooled files with a finishing definition and

these new spooled files are placed back on the same outq, then the new spooled file(s) should NOT be able to trigger the finishing definition again...

D=Sort Spooled File

Seqnbr Function

This function is used to sort the spool entry accoding to criteria defined in a Sort Definition. Refer to section Sort Definitions page 230 for more information.

Sort Definition

Name:The Sort definition name.

Output queue/

library:Output from the Sort process will be a new SCS spool entry. If a default queue has been defined, the keyword *DEFAULT will be preset for this field. This is overwritten when entering a queue and a library here. *INPUT in this field Indicates that the new spool entry must be written to the same output queue where the input spool entry exists.
