Hi

I have a program,,which access the IDMS database, inut is acct no file and for each acct it will update the 3-4 idms records.. and suppose for particular acct it had updated the 2 records and while trying to update 3 rd record I found that it was not the proper acct to be used(I cannot check this condition before I start updating )... so Is there anyway that I can rollback only the changes that were done to that particular acct and continue for other accts, all currencies and run unit bind should be there(basically skip that acct)... job is running in local mode

will rollback work there...

Any help is highly appreciated..

Thanks

Anand,

You can define working storage array for the 3 or 4 records that you want to update. After finishing all your validation perform the update if it is a valid updatable record.If not just initialize the working storage array.

Hope this helps...

HI Anand,

Is that a batch program that you are using or you are using some transaction processor like CICS?

Thanks for ur early response..

Kolusu,

I have just provided the example, but there's lot of logic & lot more idms records updation involved.. So I don't think so I can keep track of them..

Minas,

It's batch programming only ... no CICS/ADSO involved..

What exactly ROLLBACK willdo in local mode .. is it rollback all the changes that were done so far in that module?... pls explain me ..

Thanks
Anand

Hi,

Did anyone have any suggestions on this..

Thanks

COMMIT will commit all the changes made to that point in the module.
ROLLBACK will rollback all changes made to that point in the module since the last COMMIT.

You can COMMIT after each record. And do a ROLLBACK for the account that you dont want to update. COMMIT after each record will take up more time but if that is what you want, then that is what you will have to do.
