1.7.1 Messages

When message(s) have been issued, the first message is always displayed on line 22 of the current screen (above the function key line).
 
 Job 123456/QUSER/INVOICE submitted to job queue QGPL/QBATCH        +
 F1=Help  F3=Exit  F12=Cancel  F14=Messages                          
 
A plus sign indicates that more messages follow this message.
If the plus sign appears then there are two ways of viewing the following message(s).

• The first is to move the screen cursor down to line 22 of the screen (the same line as the message) and then use the ROLL UP and ROLL DOWN keys to scroll backwards and forwards through all the messages. The last message can be identified by the absence of the "+" sign (no more messages follow).
• The second method is to use the MESSAGES function key. When used, a display like the example below will overlay the bottom of the current screen. Note that the "+" sign may still be present if more messages exist than can be displayed. In this case, use the ROLL UP and ROLL DOWN keys to scroll through all the messages.

  Note:
• When using the MESSAGES function key, not only are the messages issued by LANSA displayed, but also any messages that are currently on the message queue of the workstation at which you are working.
• To view the second level text of any message, position the screen cursor anywhere on the same line as the message and press the HELP key.
• To complete the review of messages press the ENTER/REC ADV key. The full screen that was in use when the messages function key was used will then be restored and normal processing can be resumed.
• While messages are being reviewed it is not possible to change any information shown anywhere on the screen.
