Editing User-defined Menu Options

With ETU it's possible to add menu options, called user-defined

functions, to the ETU Main menu. A user-defined function is any command

or program that can be run on the AS/400. Even ETU utilities, like

EDTUDF, can be added to the ETU menu. Once a user-defined function has

been added to the menu, you can execute the option as you do any ETU

option -- by entering the option number on the ETU command line and

pressing ENTER.

To add a user-defined function to the menu, follow the instructions

below:

1. If you adding a user-defined function for your own menu, enter the

command EDTUDF on the AS/400 command line and press Enter. Then skip

to step 3.

If you are adding a user-defined function for a user other than

yourself, press F4.

You are 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.

2. Press ENTER.

The Edit User-defined Functions screen displays. The first time you

add a user-defined function, the utility is in add mode. Each time

thereafter it is in change mode. To switch from change mode to add

mode, press F9.

3. On the Edit User-defined Functions screen, supply values for the

Description, Function, and Mode parameters. These parameters are

described below.

4. 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 re-display the ETU menu by
issuing the WSMENUS command.
