Handling this as a redefinition allows 2014 (and prior) processing to use the old names and 2015 and subsequent to use the new names.</li> </ul> <h4>Implementation Notes</h4> <ul> <li>This item is required at all client sites using the WolffPack packaging routines.</li> <li>Modify the PREDICT definition for the WF-PELL file/userview to reflect the new field lengths: <pre> .... 1 AA WF-AID-YEAR N 4.0 N D 1 AB WF-PL-TBL-TYPE N 1.0 N D chg-> 1 AC WF-PL-HI-COA N 6.0 N D chg-> 1 AD WF-PL-HI-EFC N 6.0 N D 1 AE WF-PL-AWARD N 5.0 N chg-> 1 AF WF-PELL-KEY B 17 N S * -------- SOURCE FIELD(S) ------- * WF-AID-YEAR(1-4) * WF-PL-TBL-TYPE(1-1) * WF-PL-HI-COA(1-6) * WF-PL-HI-EFC(1-6) .... </pre> Modify the ADABAS file definition for the WF-PELL file:<ul> <li class="list">Increase field WF-PL-HI-COA to 6 bytes</li> <li class="list">Increase field WF-PL-HI-EFC to 6 bytes</li> <li class="list">Verify that the WF-PELL-KEY is increased to 17 bytes</li></ul> </li> <li>Regenerate the WF-PELL ADABAS File.</li> <li>Regenerate the DDM for the WF-PELL userview.</li> <li>Load the new and updated modules from the SYSOBJH input file (sy1402_03.txt) in the <a href="http://www.wolffpack.com/clientservices/client_zip_files/2014/1402-03.zip">attached zip file</a>.
