Intermate AS/400, i5, iSeries manual Name, *NONE, Library, *LIBL, Parm 1 KEY1-3, *VA-9

G NOTE G

All the autonumerators change for each new PDF file. Except *TASKKEY and *KEY. Normally you would create a new PDF file for each new key, but not necessarily.

Date:		Inserts the current date. It can be the: 1=System date,
		2=Job date (the date of the AFC job) or the 3=Spoolfile
		creation date. Many different formats (without
		delimiters) are supported.
Time:		Inserts the current time. It can be either: 1=System or
		2=Spool creation time.
System environment info:		At the moment only '1=System name' can be selected.
User exit:		Select this possibility and you will see this:
	User exit program . . . .	__________	Name, *NONE
	User exit program . . . .	__________	Library, *LIBL
	Exit fields variables
	Parm 1 - 5	_____ _____ _____ _____ _____		*KEY1-3, *VA-9
	Parm 6 - 10	_____ _____ _____ _____ _____

So with this option you can call your own program to insert a value in a variable e.g. found by using other variables. You can only use variables with names, that are lower e.g. *V2 can be calculated with the values from *VA-*VZ and *V1.

J TIP J

For a demo source of a user exit program look in source file APF3812/APISRC in

member PNMEXIT. The program will be called with &Entrystep = *VAR. You return the value for the variable in &Rtnparm1.

G NOTE G

The same exit program can be called several times from different places in the PDF File naming finishing definition. The field &Entrystep indicates from where it is called.
