With this you can change FORMTYPE or USRDATA attributes of the input spooled file.
The idea of changing the form type is the requirement for a spool entry, which has been
processed under e.g. the overlay name INVOICE to be run through the statements defined for
the overlay SHIPPING. If the original spool entry had form type Invoice a sequence line
®
1.Merge with InterForm400 overlay would have made one printout. After this sequence line
you change the forms type of the original spool entry to Shipping which will cause another 1.
®
Merge with InterForm400 overlay to add the SHIPPING overlay and produce a new printout.
Form Type The new form type assigned to the original input spool entry.
User data The text description attached to a spool entry when viewing an output
queue. Changing of USRDTA will normally only be done to indicate that
a spool entry has been processed.
Remember to state ‘Restart with sequence no. 1 = Y’ if you want Auto Forms Control to react
on the new form type.
