Data
These processing options specify whether to use replacement characters and whether to capitalize all alpha characters.
- 1. Replace pre-defined characters (UDC 04/RC) in One-To-One mode
Specify whether the system replaces special characters. If you specify to replace special characters, the system reads the Replaced Character UDC (04/RC) and replaces single characters according to the values in the UDC. The system then reads the Special Characters UDC (04/SC) and replaces special characters according to the values in that UDC. Values are:
Blank: Do not replace special characters
1: Replace special characters
Note: For programs P0457 and P03B571, the system replaces only the first character in the Description 01 field of UDC 04/RC with the first character in the Description 02 field. It does not replace more than one character, even if the UDC is mapped in a one-to-many mode. Other programs that use UDC 04/RC replace more than one character if the UDC is mapped in a one-to-many mode.- 2. Capitalize all alpha characters
Specify whether the system capitalizes all alphabetic characters in the record. If you leave this processing option blank, the system does not capitalize characters.
- 3. Replacement Character (UDC 04/SC)
Specify whether the system replaces characters in fields and tables that match characters that are defined in UDC 04/SC with a specified character or with a blank. To replace the characters with a specified character, enter the character in the processing option. To replace the special characters with a blank, leave the processing option blank
Note: The system always replaces the character that is defined in UDC 04/SC with either the character that you specify or a blank. If you do not want to replace any characters, UDC 04/SC must be blank.
