For your convenience, DataManager provides input and output definitions for all these record types. You can also supplement them with records you create using DataManager's online component. This record creation capability allows you to process input from flat files with fixed-format records. As a result, DataManager has the flexibility to handle data from numerous sources, so your PMA applications can be as comprehensive in scope as you require. A given product and/or interface may have multiple input/output definitions associated with it. Refer to Appendix B, "Predefined Input and Output Records," for details.

DataManager prepares data from many sources for use by PMA applications
