Creating Log files after program is executed in background.

[Former Member]

Hello experts,

I am creating a program which its aim is to create a flat file and send it over server. The program however is to be executed in the background and after executing the job (in background). A Log file should be created in a specific format.

Can someone please tell me how can I create a log file after the program has executed in background.

Thanks,

Shabir

Hi,

Modify the program which is to be scheduled in background.

At the end of the background program, build a code using OPEN DATASET... to write the log details to application server.

The reason to build the code at the end of the program is bcz Once the control reaches the LOG WRITING logic, it would mean that the background program has been successfully executed.
