Using the Complete Option

As an aid in packaging, CA Gen provides a Complete option that you can select at several points during packaging.

The Complete option finishes packaging for the selected object. The Complete option also automatically assigns a unique name to each object. You can select this option at the business-system, load-module, procedure-step, action-block, or batch-job level.

At whatever level you pick the Complete option, CA Gen finishes required packaging for the selected object and its subordinates.

For example, when you complete online packaging for a business system, CA Gen software:

• Creates one or more load modules (based on your selection of multiple modules or one module) and assigns load module names.
• Assigns unpackaged online procedure steps (with called action blocks) to the load modules.
• Assigns file names for procedure-step and action-block source code, screen code and any other required code, such as Message Format Service (MFS) for the IMS TP monitor.
• Assigns clear screen and dialog-flow transaction codes for each procedure step packaged during transformation.

You can view the results of packaging by selecting the business system and selecting VIEW and EXPAND ALL. For more information, see Results of Packaging.
