IBM Power Ideas Portal


This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Power Systems products, including IBM i. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).

RELATED IDEAS

Allow for delete of *JRNRCV in schema with option *IGNEXITPGM

The command DLTJRNRCV has the options: *IGNINQMSG , *IGNEXITPGM and
*IGNTGTRCV which you can specify when you are deleting journals.

ACS => Schemas => deleting *JRNRCV does not have all these options.


Use Case:

Customers have problems with the fact that for some functions you have to switch back to the green screen and use the CLI. In the GUI is more easy to explain and customers have a better understanding of what they are doing.

One GUI to control it all is my motto.

    The CAAC has reviewed this requirement and recommends that IBM view this as a high priority requirement that is important to be addressed. IBM's direction is to aim to use GUI rather than the "green screen", so the GUI needs to be improved to include functions like this one.

    Background: The COMMON Americas Advisory Council (CAAC) members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CAAC has a key role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual RFEs on the broader IBM i community, and has therefore reviewed your RFE.

    The CEAC has reviewed this requirement and recommends that IBM view this as a HIGH priority requirement that is important to address.

    Currently, this function is not available in the GUI, whilst this might not be everyday operation it is important that is added to the GUI interface to prevent the need to use the 5250.
