ATTRIBUTES-TO-ALTER
lets you select the folder attribute fields to be changed.
Y Select the corresponding FOLDER-ATTRIBUTES field for alteration.
N Disable the corresponding FOLDER-ATTRIBUTES field for alteration.
Fields labeled as RESERVED are reserved for use by Tandem. Set these fields to N
or SPACES, depending on the definition of the field.
ORDERING-DISCIPLINE
specifies what information TISERV should use as the ordering key when saving
items in the folder as follows:
TIME-SAVED (T)
saves items in chronological order of the time a SAVE-ITEM UOW is executed
for the items. TRANSFER versions A01 and A02 use the TIME-SAVED
ordering discipline exclusively. Folders created by the A01 or A02 version are
ordered in ascending sequence by time saved unless the ordering criteria is
altered.
CREATOR-NAME (C)
saves items in alphabetic order by the node name and then the correspondent
name of the creator.
EARLIEST-DELIV-DATE (E)
saves items that are package headers and are unalterable by earliest delivery
date; save items that are not package headers or are package headers and are
alterable by creation date.
APPLIC-DEFINED (A)
saves items in order of the ordering key specified by the application in the
SAVE-ITEM-BY-KEY UOW. An application can specify the same ordering key
for multiple items if duplicates are allowed; if duplicates are not allowed, the
application is responsible for ensuring the uniqueness of the key.
If this field contains a character other than T, C, E, or A, TISERV returns the error
E-INVALID-ORD-DISCIPLN.
APPLIC-ORDER-TYPE
is used to distinguish between types of ordering disciplines and is meaningful
only if ORDERING-DISCIPLINE has the value A (APPLIC-DEFINED); otherwise,
the field is ignored.
OPTIONS
provides additional criteria for saving items.
