SUBMIT is an UPDATE view, i.e., data is
transmitted from the Natural program (client side) to ESY (server side).
The Entire System Server view SUBMIT returns codes and
messages that describe whether the requested operation has been executed
successfully or not, and the JOB-NUMBER of a submitted job.
Therefore, the DEFINE DATA section of the Natural
program should only contain the fields shown in the following example:
1 SUBMIT VIEW OF SUBMIT
2 ERROR-CODE 2 ERROR-TEXT 2 SYSTEM-MESSAGE-CODE
2 SYSTEM-CODE 2 JOB-NUMBER
These fields in DEFINE DATA are the fields returned
from the SUBMIT view in Entire System Server to the calling
Natural program.
Defining other fields in the DDM is not critical, but the access to these fields may lead to unpredictible results.
If system is configured to work with encrypted passwords (class 2
system parameter ENCRYPT), the Entire System Server
requires startup parameter JOBENT=YES to submit jobs for password
protected users. Class 2 system parameter SVC79 must be
enabled also.
