This Natural profile parameter specifies the destination where output from an asynchronous application is to be displayed.
Possible settings | 1 to 8 characters | Output destination, for example, printer. |

The following platform-specific characteristics apply:

CICS | The profile parameter SENDER specifies the
CICS transient data (TD) destination and the terminal or printer for terminal
output from asynchronous sessions. If the specified destination does not exist,
the session output is sent to the specified terminal or printer. If the
specified terminal or printer does not exist either, the session terminates
abnormally.
The default terminal output format for asynchronous sessions is a
3270 data stream. If the If you are routing all output to a (spool) destination, such as
CSSL, the Natural application must be switched to line mode, for example, by
specifying

IMS TM | The profile parameter SENDER specifies the
default LTERM . This LTERM is always used when no
other printer has been specified. You should always dynamically define a
SENDER parameter in the NIIBOOT module.
This is important when Natural tries to output error messages when starting a
session: if no SENDER parameter is specified, there is
no valid LTERM and NATIMS terminates the
session.

openUTM | The profile parameter SENDER specifies the
ID for the initialization of an asynchronous transaction; that is, the ID which
identifies the transaction as asynchronous. If output from an asynchronous
transaction is to be printed, the setting specified with the
SENDER parameter also identifies the printer on which
the output is to be printed.
