Have a look at the ER table on MSF010 via MSO011

Hi rharsh, There is a line of code in the script to get the line length - $m_len = length($m_line); Your idea of removing all the ^M's then adding one back at the end of the line sounds promising but I don't know how to do it - my Perl skills are limited. Any suggestions on how to do this...

Thanks for your help Kirsle. I applied the changes you suggested but it didn't make any difference. Perhaps on my initial post I didn't explain the situation clearly. Control character, mainly ^M are getting into our EAM application Ellipse through the front end screens. A work order was...

Hi, We are experiencing problems with embedded control characters in our EAM application Ellipse. It is not causing a problem with the online system but it is with CSV extracts and print jobs. I have been able to get around the problem on the CSV extracts using the UNIX function 'tr' before...

Modify the SJ to include an estimate of the time required to do the job, e.g. 48 hrs.

You can do a desc on the table from SQL or you can look in the data dictionary which will be somewhere in the documentation that came with Ellipse. Tables: MSF100 - Stock Code - global catalogue MSF170 - District Inventory MSF180 - Warehouse Inventory

Reservations of material for future use are made simply by entering a requisition with a future date required (outside the warehouse service time). The re-order algorithms only take into account requisitioned items that fall within the lead time of the item.

Hi Andrew, We're using a fat client - no Citrix. For some reason management are against Citrix.

I'm not familiar with Ellipse runnings under Windows but there is another place you can check. Run msqcpl.cpl in the Program Files\Mincom\Ellipse\WinView\Bin direcory and check Login Defaults under Ellipse UI Login properties.

I'm assuming you're running Ellipse from UNIX. Did you change the ip address in /etc/hosts?

Did you restart the service?

Did you modify the CTG.INI file in the CICS bin directory? You'll also have to restart the CICS service on the Desktop to pick up the change.

Thanks for your reply. We're running Ellipse on a UNIX host but unfortunately not all users have an email address. Ideally I would like to broadcast through CICS so all users would see the message.

Under other TP Systems it is possible to broadcast a message to Ellipse users, for example advising of an outage or shutdown. Does anyone know of a way of doing this through CICS? tia Greg

Hi, How is the project going? There must be a number of people there from Zarafshan. Good luck.
