Field Names and Descriptions

For descriptions of the fields on this screen, see Field Names and Descriptions.

Navigation

Some of the panels have a large scrollable area. Be sure to navigate to the bottom of the scrollable area as to not miss any fields. Use the UP and DOWN keys to scroll up or down in the panels.

Use the END (PF3) command to save your entries in the current panel and return to the RDX Profile Menu. If flow through mode is active, END proceeds to the next selected profile option panel.

Use the PREV (PF10) and/or NEXT (PF11) commands to navigate to the next or previous panel when in flow through mode.

Enter CANCEL to return to the next higher level panel and discard any changes made in the panel where CANCEL is entered. If you specify ALL in the RDX Profile screen or select multiple subpanels, CANCEL returns to the RDX Profile screen instead of going to the next panel selected, and all changes while in the CANCELed Profile screen will be discarded. Updates made in screens you exited with END will be retained, unless you also enter CANCEL on this RDX Profile screen.

Locking a Profile Value

When you enter the TOGGLE (PF4 with KEYLIST ON) command while your cursor is on an input field, it locks or unlocks the field. A locked profile field prevents you from changing the profile value during an extract, load or delete session.
