Using Input Fields
Upon initial display, input fields on the panels contain defaults where applicable. If you type over the default, the input field retains the new value until the administrative function is completed or cancelled, after which the default value is re-displayed. For example, defaults on the first panel for adding a TP profile are initially displayed as follows:
ICQASE08
ADD TP Profile
Command ===> More ...
Type information. Then Enter.
Transaction Scheduler . . ASCH________
To system file . . SYS1.APPCTP_________________________________
TP Name _______________________________________________________________
Level . . . . SYSTEM System/Group/User
ID . . . . . ________ Group ID or User ID
(required for Group or User Level)
Active Status . . YES Yes/No
PF1=Help PF3= Exit PF12= Cancel
When the default value in the Active Status field is written over with a NO, that NO will remain for the duration of adding the TP profile. After the TP profile is added or if the addition is cancelled from one of the panels, the Active Status field reverts back to the default YES.
The panel provides information about what each input field can contain. More information is available from the help panel. For example, one of the help panels for the Add TP Profile panel provides the following information:
ICQBS081
HELP APPC Administration
Command ===> Page 2 of 3
Add TP Profile

When Active Status is YES or Y, the TP can be accessed and run. If the
TP needs to be inactivated because of problems within the TP or in the
resources it uses, you can change the Active Status to NO or N.
