The -SS Lines tab is common to the
Table editor and Logical View editor. It is used to define the subschemas
in a Logical View or the subschemas and subsystems in a Table.
Figure 1. Example of a -SS Lines tab
- Line type
- This field cannot be entered. It automatically displays the type
of line for the line that is selected in the list of subschemas and
subsystems. A line that contains a subschema is referenced as an S-type
line, and a line that contains a subsystem is identified by a Y letter.
- Number
- Assign a number to the subschema or subsystem that is added to
the list of -SS lines. You can create up to 10 subschemas or subsystems.
Select a number from 0 to 9.
The value 0 corresponds to the number 10. A value
is mandatory in this field.
- Subschema or subsystem name
- Assign a name to the subschema or subsystem that is selected in
the list of -SS lines. The name is mandatory. This name is 6 characters
long maximum. Use the standard labels in Pactables for a subsystem
called in a Table.
- Max number of occurrences
- Indicate the repetitive read or update capacity of the server
that calls a subschema or subsystem in a repetitive structure (C/S).
This capacity is expressed by a maximum number of repetitions. This
value is automatically set to 100. The field is dimmed when it corresponds
to the amount of space that is reserved for a Segment in memory (Batch
Applications function). For subsystems from Pactables, this field
is strictly for documentation purposes.
Note: Data Elements and Segments are
associated with subschemas in the -CE Lines tab
of the Logical View editor in a wizard that you open by clicking More in
the Data Element call, Segment call,
or Group definition section.
