A report must be started so that it can accumulate data. After you have completed your report, you may start it immediately, or save it to be started at another time.
To save a new or modified report
Press PF5 or enter the SAVE command on the command line.
When a report definition is saved, it is written to the Adabas Review repository and a Natural display program is generated.
Press PF6 or enter the START command on the command line.
The START command first executes the SAVE command to save the report definition and generate the display program. A message is then displayed, indicating that the online report has been started.
Note:
If you are trying to start a report in hub mode using batch
Natural , you must issued the MENU HUB=hubid command
prior to issuing the START command for the report.
To start an existing (saved) report
Enter the ST command on the selection line preceding the report name from the Report Definitions screen (LR function).
Adabas Review responds with a message indicating that the online report has been started.
Started reports may be suspended, reactivated, closed, or refreshed. These commands are issued from the Started Reports screen (LS function).
