TDAM: Access in the Batch Mode

Introduction: The TDAM procedure will allow the user to create, update, list and delete documentation and data on the TDAM data base. These changes can be entered using this interactive procedure with the convenience of on line processing, but the actual transactions are made in the batch mode. Thus the expense of making real time changes is greatly reduced through the use of batch processing. Since most changes to TDAM do not require faster than overnight turn around, you can save about 40 percent in processing costs compared to DBUSER and TDAMUSER. Furthermore the TDAM procedure gives you more control over the creation and maintenance of TDAM documentation.
