Restart the system currency conversion

Related topics

The following describes what to do if the conversion ended abnormally. The conversion routine automatically keeps track of which files that have been converted which makes it possible to restart the conversion without having to re-convert already successfully converted files.

The system currency conversion routine consists of three different parts.

    1. Selection panels.
    2. Conversion programs.
    3. Fix programs run after all files have been converted

The problem that made the conversion run end abnormally must be analysed and eliminated before you proceed. Contact your local DC1 representative for assistance.

Tip: To check which conversion programs that have been run successfully and where the conversion stopped select the Select conversion programs menu item. The program that did not complete normally will be highlighted in the window.

Status Description
0 Conversion not started
1 Conversion ended abnormally
2 Conversion completed normally
  1. Follow the instructions in Run the system currency conversion. You will access the same panels as when you started the conversion the first time. The only difference will be that all fields, except the fields on the application unique panels, will be protected for input.
  2. Caution: None of the running prerequisites should be changed, i.e., do not activate or add new programs to the conversion program file SCOCNP by using DFU. It will not be possible to activate any new conversion programs from the Select conversion programs menu item.

    The system will send the following message if the conversion fell over while running one of the conversion programs: “Conversion already started for conversion program xxx but did not complete normally“. Depending on your analysis about the problem, select one of the following options:

    Code Description
    1 Continue with this program
    2 Continue with the next program
    3 End the conversion

    The following fix programs are run by the conversion routine after all files have been successfully completed.
