Step 3: Changing Data

Check the Data

Review the first row once again. Check to see that it was entered correctly. If there are any keying errors, move the cursor to the entry you want to correct and edit the data as necessary.

For this sample application, move the cursor to the Current Status field. Change the job status from FILLED to OPEN.

Registering Changes

When the row is displayed on the screen the way you want it stored in the database, you must modify the data in the database by selecting the Change function ([PF2]).

The message ROW HAS BEEN CHANGED displays in the message display field.

Continue to End

Press [Enter] to display the next row. Make any necessary modifications to this row. Press [PF2] to implement the change in the database. Wait for the ROW HAS BEEN CHANGED message to display.

Press [Enter] to display the next row. Edit this and the remaining rows, as needed. Remember to press [PF2] to modify each edited row in the database.
