User Options
- Ignore Decimal Data Error
- Specifies whether decimal data errors found in packed or zoned decimal fields upon executing requests are to be ignored. Selecting Yes to ignore decimal data errors and using existing indices can considerably reduce the time needed to execute a request. If this item is not specified, the transfer request creates indices again and modifies any detected decimal data errors. This requires extra processing time.
- Time Format
- Specifies a desired time format for fields of iSeries, eServer™ i5,
or System i5® field type having a selected time. If
no time format is specified, the default value in the workstation's national
information file is used when the transfer request starts, and that
in an existing transfer request is assumed when the request is called
again.
Supported time formats are as follows:
- HMS
- Hours, minutes, seconds (hh:mm:ss)
- ISO
- International Standard Organization (hh.mm.ss)
- USA
- USA Standard (hh:mm AM or PM)
- EUR
- IBM® European Standard (hh.mm.ss)
- JIS
- Japanese Industrial Standard (hh:mm:ss)
- DDS
- iSeries, eServer i5, or System i5 DDS (Format given by iSeries, eServer i5, or System i5 file attribute)
- DFT
- iSeries, eServer i5, or System i5 default format (Host job default is used)
- Time separator
- Specifies enabled delimiters. The fields of the iSeries, eServer i5,
or System i5 field type for the selected time must
be in a format that supports delimiters.
When no delimiters are specified, the default value in the workstation's national information file is used when the transfer request starts, and that in an existing transfer request is assumed when the request is called again.
Supported time delimiters are as follows:
- Colon
- (:)
- Period
- (.)
- Comma
- (,)
- Blank
- ( )
- Null
- (NULL) No Separator
- Default value
- (DFT) iSeries, eServer i5, or System i5 Default Separator
- Date Format
- Specifies the date format for fields of iSeries, eServer i5,
or System i5 field type for the selected date.
If this date format is not specified, the default value in the workstation's national information file is used.
Supported values are as follows:
- MDY
- Month, day, year (mm/dd/yy)
- DMY
- Day, month ,year (dd/mm/yy)
- YMD
- Year, month, day (yy/mm/dd)
- JUL
- Julian (yy/ddd)
- ISO
- International Standard Organization (yyyy-mm-dd)
- USA
- USA Standards (mm/dd/yyyy)
- EUR
- IBM European Standard (dd.mm.yyyy)
- JIS
- Japanese Industrial Standard (yyyy-mm-dd)
- DDS
- iSeries, eServer i5, or System i5 DDS (Format given by iSeries, eServer i5, or System i5 file attribute)
- DFT
- iSeries, eServer i5, or System i5 default format (Host job default is used)
- Date separator
- Specifies delimiters. The fields of the iSeries, eServer i5,
or System i5 field type for the selected date must
be in a format that supports delimiters.
When no date delimiters are specified, the default value in the workstation's national information file is used when the transfer request starts, and that in an existing transfer request is used when the request is called again.
Supported date delimiters are as follows:- Slash
- (/)
- Dash
- (-)
- Period
- (.)
- Comma
- (,)
- Blank
- ( )
- Null
- (Null) Delimiters are not used.
- DFT
- (DFT) iSeries, eServer i5, or System i5 default separator
- Decimal separator
- Specifies the decimal point character in an iSeries, eServer i5,
or System i5 field whose type is packed decimal or
zoned decimal.
When decimal points are not specified, the default value in the workstation's national information file is used when the transfer request starts, and that in an existing transfer request is used when the request is called again.
Supported decimal point delimiters are as follows:- Period
- (.)
- Comma
- (,)
- DFT
- (DFT) - Default decimal separator
