Item Master File

Hex-Dump of VSAM/KSDS Item Master File |
|
| The SimoTime Home Page |
Introduction
This is an example of a Batch COBOL program that does File Access to an Item Master File and writes the content of a selected record from the VSAM, KSDS in Hex-format (Dump) to a user-defined log file.
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.

The Item Master File
The Item 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 starts in position one (1) and is 12 bytes in length.
Overview and Flow Chart
This utility uses a Set of Windows Command Files and COBOL programs to provide detailed information in Hex-Dump format for records in an Item Master file.
| 1. | Initialize the Environment |
| 2. | Prepare the Dump and Control Files |
| 2.1. | Delete a previously created dump file |
| 2.2. | Create a new control file with one record |
| 3. | Read Control File, process the VSAM/KSDS and produce a HEX-Dump output |
| 3.1. | Call the Hex-Dump Routine (SIMOHEX4) |
| 3.2. | Write to the Hex-Dump File |
| 4. | End of Job Processing |

Program Objectives
Provide an individual with the ability to view a record or groups of records from a VSAM/KSDS. The output will be in a Hexadecimal-Dump format.
| 1. | Read a control file containing a list of item numbers. Use the control file to select the user-specified records. |
| 2. | Read the Item Master file and produce output in hex-dump format. |

Program Input and Output
This utility requires two inputs and create an output file. The 1st input file is an ASCII/Text file with each record containing a single item number (12 digits) that will be used as the primary key to access the Item File. The 2nd input is an Item Master file that is a VSAM/KSDS.
The output file is an ASCII/Text file that contains Hex-Dump information. This file may be viewed with a text editor such as NotePAD. The following is an example of the HEX-Dump information that is produced.

Summary
The purpose of this suite of programs is to provide examples that use batch COBOL programs to access VSAM, Key-Sequenced-Data-Sets (KSDS) and write information to a user-defined log file in a hexadecimal dump format. 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 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.
SIMOTIME Services has experience in moving or sharing data or application processing across a variety of systems. For additional information about SIMOTIME Services or Technologies please contact us using the information in the Contact or Feedback section of this document.

Company Overview
SimoTime Technologies was founded in 1987 and is a privately owned company. We specialize in the creation and deployment of business applications using new or existing technologies and services. We have a team of individuals that understand the broad range of technologies being used in today's environments. Our customers include small businesses using Internet technologies to corporations using very large mainframe systems.
Quite often, to reach larger markets or provide a higher level of service to existing customers it requires the newer Internet technologies to work in a complementary manner with existing corporate mainframe systems. We specialize in preparing applications and the associated data that are currently residing on a single platform to be distributed across a variety of platforms.
Preparing the application programs will require the transfer of source members that will be compiled and deployed on the target platform. The data will need to be transferred between the systems and may need to be converted and validated at various stages within the process. SimoTime has the technology, services and experience to assist in the application and data management tasks involved with doing business in a multi-system environment.
Whether you want to use the Internet to expand into new market segments or as a delivery vehicle for existing business functions simply give us a call or check the web site at http://www.simotime.com
