EDTUDF Command
The EDTUDF command allows you to add user-defined options to the ETU Main menu (WSMENUS). Any valid AS/400 command can be added to the menu using this function. Additionally, ETU utilities, such as EDTUDF, can be added to the ETU menu.
To add a user-defined option, enter the command EDTUDF on the AS/400 command line and press F4. You will first be prompted to enter a user profile. You can add user-defined functions for a single user or a group of users. To add a user-defined function for a single user, enter the user's profile name. To add a user-defined function for a group of users, enter the group profile name. To add user-defined functions for yourself, type ETDUDF on the command line and press Enter.
When the Edit User-defined Functions screen displays, supply a description, function, and mode. After you have completed adding the user-defined option, press F3 to return to the main menu.
NOTE: In order for the new menu option to display on the ETU Main menu you must exit the ETU menu (press F3) and redisplay the ETU menu by issuing the WSMENUS command. The Edit User-defined Functions parameters are described below.
Description The description of the user-defined function as it will appear on the ETU Main menu. It may be up to 32 character long.
Function The AS/400 command that will be run when the menu option is issued. It may be up to 512 characters long.
Mode Specifies how the command will be executed when selected from the ETU Main menu. Valid entries are:
*PMT The user is prompted after choosing the option.
*EXE The user-defined option executes immediately after the user chooses the option.
When you specify *EXE for the mode, you are prompted to enter values for the command you specified in the Function parameter. Each time you choose the menu option, the command executes using the same values for the parameters as specified when the user-defined function was created.
