Once converted into CAS, the maintenance can be performed efficiently and allow third generation code to be migrated to a new platform, if required. This feature will allow the analysts and end user to work together without the need to program. When the design is laid out, CAS will automatically generate the appropriate software. End user documentation and help screens are also automatically generated. CAS Migration can automatically generate an Application Scheduler taat makes the generated system completely turnkey.
All programs are setup in a menu.
The user may select programs one at a time, or establish a control flow file of programs. Control Reports will display run times per program, and total run time of the entire process. All run time parameters are entered through formatted screens, making it very easy for the user to obtain the correct information needed. Using JCL and WFL is very tedious and non-user friendly. If your company needs to move an application to a new environment, everyone including the user will need to learn and write new scripts.
