SLEEP (SLP)
Use of this command with OLTP is described in your LINC Generate Operations Guide.
Report Output Control (ROC) Standard Reports
Syntax
Examples
It is recommended that the CRITICAL.POINT; command be used instead of the SLEEP;
command in Standard ROC Reports, because although a SLEEP; command causes a
database commit, all ROC Standard Report output may not have been written to the
appropriate LINC structures (as it is with a CRITICAL.POINT; command). Recovery of the
output cannot therefore be fully guaranteed. In addition, the values of System Data items
are not recovered.
