Calling Out

Figure 2-14 shows how a Tandem system can use SNAX/CM to programmatically call

out to remote locations.

For example, a retail business could schedule a program to summarize sales for each

day, and the program would run each night after the stores closed . The Tandem

system at the main office calls out to devices at remote locations to retrieve sales data

from intelligent terminals. The program at the home office then runs batch reports

and transmits summaries to remote store locations for review by managers the

following day.
