Viewing and Undoing Terminology Replacement Results
This section discusses viewing and undoing terminology replacement results.
After you run the Replace process, select to review your results and decide whether to undo any of the replacements.
This section discusses how to:
Replace replacement text.
Enable or disable undo processing.
Reviewing Replacement Text
To review replacement text:
Review the results of the Replace process.
The Replace Results/Undo page shows the same information as the Replace Data page.
The Base Text and, if applicable, the Non-Base Text show the original text.
You can see how many pages display the text, and you can click the View Text Search Details button to see details about these pages.
The Replacement Text field shows what was—or would have been—substituted for the original search text.
The Replaced check box indicates whether the original search text was replaced. At this point, the original text has been replaced, but the change has not been finalized.
The Field Name, Length, Record and RLang Rec columns provide details about where the text is stored in the database.
Selectively enable and disable undo processing.
You can undo some of the replacements without undoing all of them. Control which occurrences are replaced using the Undo check boxes.
Select Undo for those rows where you want to back out of your changes. Leave the Undo check box clear for the rows where you’re satisfied with the replacement. When you run the Undo process, only the selected rows are affected.
Click the Save button.
Enabling or Disabling Undo Processing
To enable or disable undo processing:
To enable replace processing, select the Undo Ready check box.
The Undo process picks up only the rows where this check box is selected.
To permanently disable undo processing for this search, click the Complete button.
This button changes the status of the results to Complete. Once this happens, no further processing is possible. Any replacements that have been made, including changes to messages, are now finalized.
Click the Save button.
The Undo Messages page displays the search results in the Message Catalog. If you edited the messages during the replace step, the text reflects those changes.
The Undo Messages page is identical to the Replace Messages page, and you can review and update messages using the same procedures.
To access the Undo Messages page, select.
Note: Just as you have to replace message text manually, so must you back out of any changes manually. The automatic replace and Undo process for other database objects does not apply to message text.
To run the Undo process:
Select .
Search for an existing run control ID or add a new one.
Use the standard search or add method to enter your run control ID and access the Undo page.
Verify that the appropriate search definitions will be processed.
By default, the undo includes all search definitions that have the status Replaced and the Undo Ready check box selected. If a search appears here that you do not want to run, go back to the Replace Results/Undo page and clear the Undo Ready check box. If a search is missing, go back to the Replace Results/Undo page and select the Undo Ready check box.
Click the View Search Criteria button to display a read-only version of the search criteria. This is useful when you want to confirm which set of criteria you’re processing.
Click the Run button.
The Process Scheduler Request page appears.
Complete the Process Scheduler Request page.
Click OK.
The Undo process runs. Once the undo is complete, navigate to the All Search Results page to view the results.
