Overview

Universal Connector for SAP job intercept table definition files contain statements that specify criteria rows. These definitions are used by the SUBMIT command to replace or append the job intercept table in an SAP system.

This page provides a detailed description of the syntax options and requirements for job intercept table definition files.

Job Intercept Table Definition File Syntax

The USAP job intercept table definition file is used to replace or append the job intercept in an SAP system.

There are two types of statements used to define a job intercept table:

Job Intercept Table Header Statement
Job Intercept Table Row Statement

A job intercept table definition requires a Header statement followed by row statements. Statements are made up of keyword = value assignments and are terminated with a semi-colon (;). Each statement type has a specific unique keyword that is required to start the keyword = value assignment list.

The following figure illustrates the syntax of a USAP job intercept table definition.

Sample Job Intercept Table Definition File

The following figure illustrates a sample job intercept table definition file.

The file will append four rows to the SAP job intercept criteria table.

/* Job Intercept Table Header statement */
INTERCEPT_TABLE          = "TABLE_1"
    APPEND               = "X"
;

/* Job Intercept Row statement */
INTERCEPT_ROW            = "1"
    CLIENT               = "850"
    JOB_NAME             = "TEST*"
    JOB_CREATOR          = "stonebranch"
;

/* Job Intercept Row statement */
INTERCEPT_ROW            = "2"
    CLIENT               = "850"
    JOB_NAME             = "TST*"
    JOB_CREATOR          = "stonebranch"
;

/* Job Intercept Row statement */
INTERCEPT_ROW            = "3"
    CLIENT               = "850"
    JOB_NAME             = "DEV*"
    JOB_CREATOR          = "stonebranch"
;

/* Job Intercept Row statement */
INTERCEPT_ROW            = "4"
    CLIENT               = "*"
    JOB_NAME             = "*"
    JOB_CREATOR          = "BOB"
