Hi,

i have a scenario

Code:

if posted is numeric
   add POSTED to total
end-if
if clear-flag = 'y'
   add susp to total
else
  add asusp to total
end-if


Please advise if the following sort statement is correct for above statement.

Assuming total is available in 12th position

Code:

IFTHEN=(WHEN=(POSTED,EQ,NUM),               
OVERLAY=(12:12,12,ZD,ADD,                                   
         POSTED,TO=ZD,LENGTH=12),HIT=NEXT),
IFTHEN=(WHEN=(CLEAR-FLAG,EQ,C'Y'),             
OVERLAY=(12:12,8,ZD,ADD,SUSP,TO=ZD,LENGTH=12)),               
IFTHEN=(WHEN=NONE,                                           
        OVERLAY=(12:12,8,ZD,ADD,ASUSP,TO=ZD,LENGTH=12))


I have a doubt whether the above sort work like the below statement


Code:

if posted is numeric
   add POSTED to total
else
   add asusp to total (I don't want this to happen)
end-if
if clear-flag = 'y'
   add susp to total
else
  add asusp to total
end-if




Thanks
Magesh

Magesh_J,

WHEN=NONE will NOT be active if any of the IFTHEN Conditions have been true. You only had HIT=NEXT on the first IFTHEN, so it will check for Clear-flag but not for when=none.

Btw why do you have 8 and 12 bytes for the same position?

When you are adding POSTED you are using a 12 byte value for SUSP and ASUSP, you are only using 8 bytes which does not make sense. Is that a typo?

Hi Kolusu,

Thanks for the advice,

Yes, it's a typo.

Code:

IFTHEN=(WHEN=(POSTED,EQ,NUM),               
OVERLAY=(12:12,12,ZD,ADD,                                   
         POSTED,TO=ZD,LENGTH=12),HIT=NEXT),
IFTHEN=(WHEN=(CLEAR-FLAG,EQ,C'Y'),             
OVERLAY=(12:12,12,ZD,ADD,SUSP,TO=ZD,LENGTH=12)),               
IFTHEN=(WHEN=NONE,                                           
        OVERLAY=(12:12,12,ZD,ADD,ASUSP,TO=ZD,LENGTH=12))


IF I understood correctly, then this works as below code.

Code:

if posted is numeric
   add POSTED to total
end-if
if clear-flag = 'y'
   add susp to total
else
  add asusp to total
end-if


Thanks
