Hi All
May be, my question is so common for experts but I am new to the world of ADSO. I came across the situation where I want to send an email to me when specific response occurs on one dialog.
E-mail notification is simple thru JCLs by SMTP step but I dont know how to handle it in ADSO screens.
Does ADSO has some utility/proc that I can use in my online COBOL programs to send email notification.
Please shed a light on this problem...

Possibly, the easiest way would be to submit a batch job from the adso process. . .

Hi Dick
Thanks for your reply..I was also thinking the same thing but this is more complicated in my system so I am searching for something to send message thru COBOL program only.
Is it really not possible from ADSO to send email?Please confirm me on this.
Please guide me more on this...

Anything that can be sent "thru a cobol program" can be written to dasd and sent using standard jcl. . .

I don't "speak" adso. What does the manual say?

Keep in mind that cobol has no built-in e-mail process. I wouldn't expect adso to have one. I would not let this interfere with getting the process running.

Hello,

May be this is helpful to you.
As dick said there is only one way we can send e-mail notification and that is through JCL's SMTP only.

If you want to trigger an e-mail through ADS/O, you need to code one response which generates the JCL with SMTP step and triggers the same from ADS/O. ( This action will submit one batch job in background which you can see in S.ST).

Hello,

ADSO documentation is covered by copyright and we may neither post it nor link to it from our forum. If your organization is licensed to use the product, all of the material is available fro free from CA Support.

Suggest you talk with someone more experienced on your system and learn how JCL is sibmitted thru the Internal Reader on that system. There are multiple topics in our forum about the Internal Reader as well. . .
