Customer Master File CICS, Inquiry & Update of VSAM |
|
| The SimoTime Home Page |
Introduction
This example uses a a suite of COBOL programs and BMS mapsets to execute programs that will provide data file inquiry or update functionality for the Customer Master File. The programs use command level CICS statements to access the VSAM Master Files and display information to a 3270 terminal or terminal emulator. The programs run on an IBM Mainframe System with CICS or a Microsoft Windows System with Micro Focus Server for Mainframe Migration.
We have made a significant effort to ensure the documents and software technologies are correct and accurate. We reserve the right to make changes without notice at any time. The function delivered in this version is based upon the enhancement requests from a specific group of users. The intent is to provide changes as the need arises and in a timeframe that is dependent upon the availability of resources.

Customer Master, Record Structure
The Customer Master File is a VSAM, Key-Sequenced-Data-Set (KSDS). The length of the records in the data set is 512 bytes. The key field strats in position one (1) and is 12 bytes in length. The following (CUSTCB01.cpy) is the COBOL copy file that defines the record layout.

Summary
The purpose of this suite of programs is to provide examples that use command level CICS in COBOL programs to access a Customer Master File that is a VSAM, Key-Sequenced-Data-Sets (KSDS) and display the information using standard BMS screen definitions to a 3270 terminal or terminal emulator. This document may be used as a tutorial for new programmers or as a quick reference for experienced programmers.
In the world of programming there are many ways to solve a problem. This document and the links to other documents are intended to provide a greater awareness of the Data Management and Application Processing alternatives.
The documentation and software were developed and tested on systems that are configured for a SimoTime environment based on the hardware, operating systems, user requirements and security requirements. Therefore, adjustments may be needed to execute the jobs and programs when transferred to a system of a different architecture or configuration.
