Due to the new naming convention in ERP are all multi occ sessions called like aabbbxxxmxxx single occ sessions aabbbxxxsxxx.
But what about print sessions? I checked some print sessions in "wh" and found they're all named with an "m". But the form of a print session ist normaly a single occurence.

How is the offical way to name a printsession?


Thanks

Dear spartacus

The naming convention follows the pattern ppmmmxxxxlyyy

• pp denotes the package
• mmm denotes the module
• xxxx denotes the session number. Now print sessions will have the number 4 as the second digit of this part, eg. 0400, 1400, 2400, 2434, etc
• l denotes the level; m means main session (can be executed independently), while s means subsession (can only be executed from other sessions
• yyy additional session number

Rgds,
Paul

Having the naming pattern ppmmmxxxxlyyy please clarify the yyy additional session number. I was told to use 000, 100, 200, etc.
Is it this the rule to use with Infor LN 10.7 ? Or, it could be 000, 001, 002, etc.
Is there a rule to say if session is Print type give yyy 000, 001, etc. AND in case the session is Maintenance the yyy is to be 100, 200, 300, 400 etc. ?
Well, I understand it is a naming CONvention but a complete clarification would be useful.

Hi Paul,

the problem exists esp. for the level "l". Because since ERP "m" stands for "multi occ session" and "s" for a "single occ session", no more for "main" and "sub".

But as I wrote already, IMHO Baan doesn't follow this convention in case of "print sessions"

regards
Spartacus

The m for multi and the s for single only exists for type I, II and III forms. The type IV forms (print sessions etc) do not have this rule. In that case only a main session exists.

Hope this helps,
Dick

Hi all,

The reasoning behind the 'm' in the code for print sessions is:
most of the time when you print data, you print multiple records. So an 'm' is more appropriate than an 's'.

But technically, the classification of multi/single occ is incorrect for print sessions. These are 'no occurrence' screens.
