Hi We moved to Release 9 LIVE In July and I can confirm green screen functionality is still there in full - most is also in IDF level 1 host process (apart from functions already available in IDF level2/PowerLink) We are moving users over now to the Host based IDF level 1 JH -----Original Message----- From: mapics-l-bounces-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected] [mailto:mapics-l-bounces-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected]] On Behalf Of mapics-l-request-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected] Sent: 29 September 2010 16:44 To: mapics-l-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected] Subject: MAPICS-L Digest, Vol 8, Issue 160 GKN Aerospace *** This message has been scanned for viruses by Mimecast *** Send MAPICS-L mailing list submissions to mapics-l-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected] To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/mapics-l or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to mapics-l-request-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected] You can reach the person managing the list at mapics-l-owner-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected] When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of MAPICS-L digest..."

I am not too sure how having an XA Printer Override is going to resolve the problem as the report could go to email or it can be printed. Maybe I am not understanding your suggestion. What is perplexing is that Infor should have something in their code if the report is being sent via email is not to print it or at least have an option not to print. I guess I should explore more possibilities of trying to put something in the parms to fix what Infor should have out there in the first place. Thank you for that suggestion. Thank you for your assistance. ------------------------------ message: 2 date: Tue, 28 Sep 2010 10:46:40 -0700 (PDT) from: Dale Gindlesperger <dale_gindlesperger-/[email protected]> subject: Re: [MAPICS-L] Integrator Host Reports Sorry for the delay in responding, but we had to do this. How I did it was to place a flag in one of the user fields for the data that was being reported (in POMAST, for example, for POs). When entering the PO, the user would enter the appropriate flag for print, fax, email, or whatever combo was desired. Then I used a user exit (you could do the same with a trigger) to perform the required override print file to route the report to the desired outq with whatever parms were needed (email address, fax#, etc). It sounds more complicated than it really was.

It does not matter which job is running or not. If disk space is at 80% the operating system begins caching at such a rate that your system will slow to a crawl. 80% is like a magic number on the i Series (Power Systems i, AS/400, et. al.) You need to do everything you can to lower your disk space usage to below the 80% threshold. Also, I'm assuming VR5.3 or VR5.4? The Power-Link architecture will benefit from an upgrade as the iSeries Java servers are vastly improved. Although, that being said I know many, many customers running R7.8 on VR5.3 and VR5.4 and are very happy with performance. But all of them are below 50% disk utilization. Also, your advice on the credit limit program may be incorrect as it has been replaced at R7.8 with PSVTUE and is no a longer scheduled job. Its not just the number of transactions that are being run, it's really your 80% issue. It also explains why you see the numbers growing. When transactions are posted (assuming all current PTF's are applied) the PSVTUE runs the updates; however because of the 80% usage issue, the system will start swapping disk space around, which will cause the program to appear to be running away. It's not really the program, but all the swapping that the OS is doing as a result of the program running. Since the swapping (memory caching)is taking overy, many of the transactions are not really completing and your numbers of pending transactions grows. I'd recommend calling support to ask them to assist in reviewing your system performance. They have the tools to assist you.
