topic Dialog programming in Application Development and Automation Discussions

A dialog program/transaction is a program that conducts a dialog with the user. In a typical dialog, the system displays a screen on which the user can enter or request information. As a reaction on the user input or request, the program executes the appropriate actions: it branches to the next screen, displays an output, or changes the database.

Unlike report, interface and conversion development, which generally entails the creation of one autonomous program which can be executed independently of other objects, dialog program development entails development of multiple objects, none of which can be executed on its own. Instead, all objects are linked hierarchically to the main program and are executed in a sequence dictated by the program.

A dialog program must offer:

• A user-friendly user interface

• Format and consistency checks for the data entered by the user

• Easy correction of input errors

• Access to data by storing it in the database.
