If there is no data available for a screen definition
If one of your screen definitions contains a view that always displays the message There is no data which satisfies your request, even though the message does not appear when the view is displayed from the COMMAND line, try the following solution:
Action | Explanation |
|---|---|
Create the screen definition again, this time carefully selecting the parameters that you want for each view. | When a screen definition is saved, the parameters currently in effect for each view are also saved. That is, assume that you display JFLOW J*, and then save that view as part of the screen definition JOBS. The next time you display JOBS, the JFLOW view will display only those jobs starting with a J. However, if there are no active jobs beginning with a J, the next time you display JOBS you will get the error message: There is no data which satisfies your request. Likewise, if you arrived at JFLOW through a hyperlink from another view, and that hyperlink definition contained the parameter >50 for the Workflow % field, JFLOW will display only those jobs with a workflow value of greater than or equal to 50 percent the next time you display JOBS. If there are no jobs that meet this criteria, the error message is displayed. |
