Before continuing with the exercises, you should note some of the similarities between the structure of the Scheduling Definition facility and the structure of the Calendar Definition facility.
Both job scheduling definitions and calendar definitions are stored in members in a library. Therefore, both facilities have corresponding screens at each relevant level.
The gateway to both definition facilities is an entry panel that allows specification of a Library, member, and entity, either a calendar year or a job scheduling definition name.
The screen at the next level lists the members in the library
The Table List screen lists the members in the Scheduling Definition facility.
The Calendar List screen lists the members in the Calendar facility.
The screen at the next level lists the entities in the member.
The Job List screen lists the entities in the Scheduling Definition facility member.
The Year List screen lists the entities in the Calendar facility member.
The screen at the next level is the definition screen itself.
The Job Scheduling Definition screen provides Scheduling Definition facility information.
The Calendar Definition screen provides Calendar Definition facility information.
The description you provide in the definition screen appears in the Job List screen or the Year List screen.
If you create or modify a definition, an Exit Option window is displayed upon exiting the Job List screen or Year List screen to enable you to save or cancel your work.
