Neighbor selection list flow synthesis also allows you to add a flow from a current Procedure Step to a selection list Procedure Step. The selection list Procedure Step has any subject entity type, including that of the current Procedure Step. The flow is implemented as a link. You select the command that executes the flow.
The intent of the neighbor selection list flow is to allow the user to complete an action at one screen (including an entity maintenance screen) by selecting an occurrence from a selection list. The occurrence of the selected neighboring entity type should have an attribute that appears in the view set. For example, the user may need to complete a name at an entity maintenance screen. By adding a flow to a neighbor selection list, the user can select the name from the list to complete the field on the entity maintenance screen.
You select the neighboring entity type from the import views of the current Procedure Step. A command of DISPLAY passes down the flow with the Execute First option. No data is matched on the flow. The flow returns to the current Procedure Step on a command of RETURN. The flow passes no command with the Display First option. On return from the neighbor procedure, the data maps to the selected entity view.
On many systems, this is called the Prompt option and is tied to PFkey 4 per IBM Common User Access (CUA) standards.
