EDTUDF Command
The EDTUDF command allows you to add user-defined options to the ETU Main
menu (WSMENUS). Any valid AS/400 command can be added to the menu using
this function. Additionally, ETU utilities, such as EDTUDF, can be added
to the ETU menu.
To add a user-defined option, enter the command EDTUDF on the AS/400
command line and press F4. You will first be prompted to enter a user
profile. You can add user-defined functions for a single user or a group
of users. To add a user-defined function for a single user, enter the
user's profile name. To add a user-defined function for a group of users,
enter the group profile name. To add user-defined functions for yourself,
type ETDUDF on the command line and press Enter.
When the Edit User-defined Functions screen displays, supply a
description, function, and mode. After you have completed adding the
user-defined option, press F3 to return to the main menu.
NOTE: In order for the new menu option to display on the ETU Main
menu you must exit the ETU menu (press F3) and redisplay the ETU menu by
issuing the WSMENUS command. The Edit User-defined Functions parameters
are described below.
Description The description of the user-defined function as it will
appear on the ETU Main menu. It may be up to 32 character
long.
Function The AS/400 command that will be run when the menu option is
issued. It may be up to 512 characters long.
Mode Specifies how the command will be executed when selected from
the ETU Main menu. Valid entries are:
*PMT The user is prompted after choosing the option.
*EXE The user-defined option executes immediately after the
user chooses the option.
When you specify *EXE for the mode, you are prompted to enter
values for the command you specified in the Function
parameter. Each time you choose the menu option, the command
executes using the same values for the parameters as
specified when the user-defined function was created.
