Hi,

In my project I am using IMSDC and it is a maintenance project I have not developed any new IMSDC screen so far. But rite now I have a requirement for designing a new screen and generating it.

I searched in the forum if I could get any info. It was given like,

1. First create the MFS having the transaction, MID and MOD.
2. Create transaction program and PSB involved and then the information needs to be passed on to DBA.

In my shop currently one particular transaction is invoking 3 screen programs one after another.
For eg:
PUDR05IM: - transaction
PUA101SM - screen program
PUA102SM - screen program
PUA103SM - screen program

PUDR06IM: - transaction
PUA201SM - screen program
PUA202SM - screen program
PUA203SM - screen program

Now the new screen which I want to introduce comes under PUDR06IM as PUA104SM. My doubt here is I have my MFS,SCREEN program and TRANSACTION program with PSB(same name as transaction). How should I provide the link between the transaction PUDR05IM and the screen program PUA104SM so that this screen program invokes only when this driver program is called.

Is there any compiler to link between the two.??? or only DBA can do it??

Please help me. If anything mentioned above is wrong correct me plz...

There is no compiler link between the two. What are your standards? In most installations, you code the MFS and compile. The DBA does not get involved. The transaction is handled by the DBA and is included in the ACB gen. You can code your own PSB and compile it. You are responsible for your own application COBOL or PL1 program.

If I were you, I would print the MFS, application program and PSB for
PUA201SM - screen program - and take a look at how they relate.

Also - I have referred to this so many times - there are 3 links that pretty much explain how IMS works - please print out these and you will get a pretty good idea of how everything fits together.

Hi,

Thanks for your help. I am going through the links sent to me and also I am trying to do as much as I can in my project. If I come across any doubts I would let you know.
Also If my doubts are little bit silly please tolerate it as it is the first time I am generating a new screen and all those stuffs icon_smile.gif

Thanks in advance.
