Action Block Regeneration

Use the Action Block Regeneration panel to regenerate selected action blocks, including foreign action blocks. When an action owned by one business system is USEd by an action block in another business system, it is referred to as a foreign action block. When you select automatic installation, intelligent regeneration also compiles a foreign action block, if the selected business system was the owning business system or if all business systems were selected. Otherwise, use Application Construction to compile.

The Action Block Regeneration panel displays the action block name, the associated business system name, the action block member name, and the name and type of the load module in which it is used.
