Session Suspension

At the end of a session you may want to retain the current entity names so that later on it is possible to return quickly to the same information. If you leave an CA IDMS DQF session by using the END PF key from the Dictionary Entity Main Menu, the scratch records are not deleted and the currency of the entities examined is retained, as long as you stay in CA IDMS/DC. As a result, the most recently accessed entity names do not have to be entered the next time you access CA IDMS DQF.
