  18. Batch Server Principles Log File (Batch Server) Working Folder SERVX3Folder Launch Batch Server (process SERVX3) Batch Process Interruption (time-out, kill) Log File (Process) Periodic Polling Recurring Tasks Request Table (ABATRQT) User Session Submission Submission by Text File Dropped in Folder TEC201: Common Tools Advanced

  19. Batch Server • A request may be submitted to the batch server: • Through the Request Submission function • Directly in the Request Management function • A request may be submitted by entering: • the folder where it is to be executed • the user code • the task or the group • the requested execution time • the parameters of the validation window • Via a text file that acts as a task submission when it is dropped to the adequate directory in the SERVX3 Folder. • Through a Recurring Task definition, i.e. a task to be launched periodically: • Monthly (1 to 5 possible days + End of Month flag) • Weekly (Any combination of weekdays) • Launching time (Up to 3 choices) • Periodically (Time intervals between two times). • Time constraints may be defined in order to specify unavailability periods during which no batch job may be launched. • The management of the requests is used to monitor or modify the pending requests, the tasks being executed or the completed tasks. • It is possible to view the different trace files, to submit a new request, to delete a pending request or to modify the parameters.

  35. Documentation • This function is used to personalize the standard delivered documentation or to develop the documentation on specific developments. • This function is integrated into the software package and is based on the organization of the X3 entities. • The start entity of a documentation is the X3 (AFC) function to which the documentation is linked. The main components of a function may concern specific documentation (Action, Screen, Table etc.) • Documentation organization is based on that of the X3 dictionary. Documentation may be based on a link table used to associate additional documentation. • The structuring elements of a document are as follows: • The language code • The type of X3 entity documented • The associated components. TEC201: Common Tools Advanced

  36. Documentation X3 documentation is organized in paragraphs. One paragraph is made up of a workframe which describes the hierarchal organization of the basic text it is made up of. The description of the paragraph’s structure is saved in the ADOCUMENT table. Paragraphs may be accessed directly via online help. Compiling this hierarchal structure with the associated texts enables the documentation generator to produce XHTML text. These paragraphs may be generated automatically according to the type associated (function / activity code etc.) TEC201: Common Tools Advanced
