When you exit from IDD, TCF suspends or terminates your IDD session and transfers control as described in the following table. The contents of a suspended IDD session are kept in a scratch record and are retained until you sign off of the DC/UCF system.

Note: You can have a maximum of one suspended online IDD session and one suspended IDD menu facility session. For example, if you have a suspended online IDD session, you can start a new IDD menu facility session but cannot start another new online IDD session. This is because an online IDD session is totally unrelated to a simultaneous IDD menu facility session.

Transferring from IDD

The way your current IDD session ends and TCF transfers control on exit depends on the exit method you use, as described in the following table.

Exit Method

SUSPEND command

  • Suspends your IDD session.

  • Terminates your IDD session.
  • Transfers control to your most recently suspended development tool session, or to the Selection screen if you have no suspended sessions.
