UOW Header and
Return Code
Each UOW transmitted to TISERV begins with a UOW header. The DDL definition for
this header is:
DEF uow-hdr.
02 self-ident PIC AA VALUE "UW".
02 uow-code TYPE BINARY 16 UNSIGNED.
END.
Individual fields in the UOW header contain the following information:
SELF-IDENT
always contains the characters UW to identify the header as a UOW header.
UOW-CODE
is a code value that identifies the specific UOW request being made. For example,
an ADD-ITEM-REC UOW that adds a record to an item has a UOW-CODE field
that contains the value 104.
Each response UOW returned from TISERV begins with the same header as the
request, followed by two fields that contain return code information. The DDL
definition for this response is:
DEF uow-hdr.
02 self-ident PIC AA VALUE "UW".
02 uow-code TYPE BINARY 16 UNSIGNED.
DEF uow-retn-code TYPE BINARY 16.
DEF retn-code-detail TYPE BINARY 16.
END.
