The production company in ASW is ‘VA’ for ‘Validation’. The test company is ‘PL’ for ‘Pilot’. Those names aren’t particularly apt descriptions, but that’s the way it worked out. The conversion programs were all tested in ‘validation’ – by the time they were all working as well as we could get them, and all the parameter files were just right, we didn’t want to start changing company codes and risk breaking things.

The operating system used to allow only 25 libraries in the user portion of the list (it now allows 250). Because we are running an older version, the ASW program to build the library list is restricted to 25 user libraries. That is fine for production, but when the development libraries are added, we go over, so two libraries are ommitted. It’s okay that UNIPHARMIT is missing, as it doesn’t usually affect test – if it does we will have to work around it. Because we cannot have WEBPRDP (production web programs) in the list, all production programs must also be in WEBDEVP.

Test or Development Environment

The production company in ASW is ‘VA’ for ‘Validation’. The test company is ‘PL’ for ‘Pilot’. Those names aren’t particularly apt descriptions, but that’s the way it worked out. The conversion programs were all tested in ‘validation’ – by the time they were all working as well as we could get them, and all the parameter files were just right, we didn’t want to start changing company codes and risk breaking things.

Library List

In order to test new programs or changes, we need an environment that is separate from production. That means duplicate copies of all data libraries, and program libraries that are not in the production library list.

The operating system used to allow only 25 libraries in the user portion of the list (it now allows 250). Because we are running an older version, the ASW program to build the library list is restricted to 25 user libraries. That is fine for production, but when the development libraries are added, we go over, so two libraries are ommitted. It’s okay that UNIPHARMIT is missing, as it doesn’t usually affect test – if it does we will have to work around it. Because we cannot have WEBPRDP (production web programs) in the list, all production programs must also be in WEBDEVP.

The following compares the library lists for ‘production’ and ‘development’ (sometimes we call this ‘test’; ASW calls it ‘quality control’). Most of the libraries are used in both environments; they contain programs or objects that are not changed. Data libraries are never used by both environments; each uses its own separate set of data files. Programs being tested are in separate libraries that are never used by production. They are in the test library list before the production program libraries so that they are found first.

This is the system portion of the library list. It is a system value, and is the same for all users.

UWDQSYS      prod     dev     uniPharm - Custom - System Objects
QSYS         prod     dev     System Library
QSYS2        prod     dev     System Library for CPI's
QHLPSYS      prod     dev
QUSRSYS      prod     dev     System Library for Users
QTEMP        prod     dev

Next is the ASW data file library; VA for validation (production), and PL for pilot (test).

UP1480BFVA   prod             ASW PRODUCTION DATA FILE LIBRARY
UP1480BFPL            dev

The next library is message files, objects need to do 'ASW Compiles', etc; and is the same for both environments.

UP1480BS     prod     dev     ASW system objects for environment UP14

These are some customized objects; for example menus.

XX1480BQ              dev
XX1480BP     prod     dev     ASW rel XX1:480B UWD Extensions (non AS objects)

These are modified ASW programs, and custom programs that use ASW files. 'Q' is quality control, and 'P' is production. As the production program library is in the list, only programs currently being tested need to be in XX2480BP.

XX2480BQ              dev     ASW rel XX2:480B quality control librar
XX2480BP     prod     dev     ASW rel XX2:480B object library

This is a quality control library that we have not used.

UP1480BQ              dev     ASW rel UP1:480B quality control library

These are program libraries, so can be in both environments. Notice that each release of ASW has the modified programs in a separate library.

UP1480BP     prod     dev     Aldon/CMS IBS/ASW450/UP1480B (PDN)
U480BP       prod     dev     Aldon/CMS IBS/ASW450/U480B (PDN)
U480AP       prod     dev     Aldon/CMS IBS/ASW450/U480A (PDN)
CVT454AP     prod     dev     ASW rel A:454A Appl CVT object library
A454AP       prod     dev     ASW rel A:454A object library
A453AP       prod     dev     ASW rel A:453A object library
A452AP       prod     dev     ASW rel A:452A object library
A450AP       prod     dev     ASW rel A:450A object library
QGPL         prod     dev     General Purpose Library

Each environment has its own version of these data libraries, for utilities, and for the extensions. RCSUTILPRD contains programs, but as it also contains data files, it cannot be used in test. All the programs, as well as the data files, have to be in RCSUTILVOL.

RCSUTILPRD   prod             RCS -- Utility Objects and Data -- Prod
RCSUTILVOL            dev     RCS -- Utility Objects and Data 
UWDASWPRDD   prod             UWD -- Extensions - VA – Data
UWDASWVOLD            dev     UWD -- Extensions - PL – Data

These are programs for the extensions. As the production program library is in the list, only programs currently being tested need to be in quality control.

UWDASWQUAP            dev     UWD -- Extensions - Quality Ctl - Objec
UWDASWPRDP   prod     dev     UWD -- Extensions - Production -- Objec

This is a program library, so can be used by both environments.

TLABARCODE   prod     dev     T.L. Ashford & Associates Barcode400

Each environment has its own version of these data libraries that are used by Web Orders and InfoNet.

WEBPRDD      prod             Web -- Data – Production
WEBDEVD               dev     Web -- Data

These are programs for the Web Orders and InfoNet. As this older version of ASW will only put 25 entries in the library list, WEBPRDP cannot be included for test. Therefore all programs and objects must be included in WEBDEVP.

WEBDEVP               dev     Web -- Programs -- Development
WEBPRDP      prod             Web -- Programs -- Production

UWDUTILPRD contains programs, but as it also contains data files, it cannot be used in test. All the programs, as well as the data files, have to be in UWDUTILVOL.

UWDUTILPRD   prod             UWD -- Extensions -- Common Utilities –
UWDUTILVOL            dev     Volume Testing Utilities

As this older version of ASW will only put 25 entries in the library list, UNIPHARMIT cannot be included for test.

UNIPHARMIT   prod             UniPHARM IT Tools -- Includes Source

Refresh Data

Eventually the data in ‘PL’ either gets so far out of date or corrupted by testing, that we need to get a fresh copy from production. In order to copy the production data libraries from disk, all users would have to be off the system, and all applications would have to be ended (like when the overnight backups are being done). To get around this, we refresh ‘PL’ from the temporary back up tape. This is tape 999999 which is written to every night before the end of day processing is done, and which is never removed from the tape library.

F3=Exit F5=Refresh F12=Cancel

This library is being used by ASW direct jobs for PL (test), and by the test Web Server. These can all be cancelled; unless of course there is testing currently going on. I normally refresh the test libraries on Saturday, so don’t have this issue.

From an ASW command line, in the production environment, key in SBMJOB and press F4 to prompt.

                              Submit Job (SBMJOB)

Key in ‘CALL BLDTEST’ and change the job queue ‘QS36EVOKE’ (this means that this program will not interfere with production jobs).

This must run in production not test, as the test libraries will be deleted. Also because the programs used are in the library UNIPHARMIT, which isn’t in the library list for development.

Testing Programs

FTP Sales Orders and/or FTP Invoicing

This is not necessarily to test our programming, but to test that the store’s Point of Sale system is doing this correctly.

Setup to Receive Orders and Send Invoices Via FTP

There is more involved than this; the store has to be set up with access to the FTP server, and directories have to be build. But I don’t know how to do that.

Go to Unity / Start uniPHARM Extensions / PL Company (VOLUME Testing) / Work with UWD IT Tools / FTP Connections / Sales Orders FTP Configuration.

‘Name’ and ‘Description’ are just used to make it easier for us to identify the store sending the order (the program gets the store number from within the order file itself). Make sure that all of the ‘FTP Directories’ in test are NOT used in production – otherwise real orders will be loaded into test instead of production! The three extension types are very important – they tell program AIRUP020 (Post incoming FTP orders into IOP) the file structure of the incoming order. Currently, we are only receiving X12 orders from Kroll (extension KRO); a new one has been added for miscellaneous X12 orders (extension X12).

Select option Invoice FTP Configuration.

This shows the status of the FTP interface (as this is test, it is ‘Not running’), and a list of the last sales orders received.

Press F7 to start the monitor, and process orders from configured folders on the FTP server. The status will change to ‘Running’. Keep pressing F5 to refresh, until the status is ‘Running – waiting for next poll’. Then press F8 to end, and F3 to exit.

Go to IOP -- ASW Order Posting Fns / IOP -- List of Order Headers. You should see the order you just loaded, and it should be at status 60 (posted to ASW).

Go into ASW (test company), and look at sales orders. This order should be at status 30 (dropped for picking).
