Automation

openFT provides job management functions such as file transfer with preprocessing, postprocessing and follow-up processing, the use of Monitor Job Variables in BS2000, and the use of file-transfer functions in dialog procedures and via program interfaces. Automation is also supported by the option for controlling the start time and lifetime of requests; see the corresponding sections. The creation of unique file names by using openFT variables makes it easier to design applications and reduces the amount of updating work to be done.
