Notes: You can replace an automatic error
message on a single line, on the
-GE Lines section.
On a
U-type line, the rank of a Data Element
on the Screen Call of Elements (
-CE Lines tab)
must be entered in positions 1 - 3. The rank of a Segment on the Screen
Call of Segments (
-CS Lines tab) must be entered
in positions 2 - 3.
The rest of the Description field
is entered as indicated above. This method implies specifying the
error codes again when a Data Element is added to or deleted from
the Call of Elements, or when a Segment is added to or deleted from
the Call of Segments.
What to do next
You must generate the error message file.
