Title: Report Migration issue
Post by: anantgowerdhan on March 10, 2008, 02:10:43 PM

Hi,

Hi,

I'm working on a project where I have to migrate 7,000,000 reports
from the existing system to OnDemand Content Manager. Problem is that
the reports which are exported from the existing system has no CR.


Can anybody tell me how can I provide CR while doing import to
OnDemand


Regards,
Anant

Carriage Return

Can you use an input exit to create carriage return?

What do you mean by Input Exit? I think you are talking about the Export utility for the existing system. isn't it?

I have no clue about the the export utility because it has to be written by some other expert of that system. But I would like to know what are the other ways to import if i get such report without CR.

In V2 you could use an input exit, possibly called the report exit now. I think you can modify the data to some extent with that.

The arsmvsnl process will add "newline" characters as it rewrites a file. The parameters define the line length and output file location.

We use this to "arsdoc GET" reports from one system, add newline chars and feed them to arsload on another.
