event-related data scrambling

[Former Member]

When defining the scrambling rules, the rule type can be event-related.

Could anybody here give some example events, i.e. we can scrambling data for what events?

Thanks a lot!

Hi David,

Event related rule could be applied for more than one field at a time. It applies at the record level and we can change the contents of a complete record using a single rule. As it does not involve any specific field, we cannot add parameters for an event related rule.

In case of event related rules enter the rule name and the step for each table. The u2018Stepu2019 defines the exact step in data transfer during which this rule should be applied. For scrambling it is usually EOR (end of record). Data transfer is carried out record by record within a loop.

EOR means that conversion takes place inside the loop at the end of every record. The Steps field has a F4 help which lists all the possible events. The following is the complete list

BOL u2013 Begin of Loop

EOL u2013 End of Loop

BOT u2013 Begin of Transaction

EOT u2013 End of Transaction

BOR u2013 Begin of Record

EOR u2013 End of Record

BOP u2013 Begin of Process

EOP u2013 End of Process

Hope this answers your query.

Best Regards,

Suman

Hi Suman,

Can you tell me how do you access the data in the records? I.e. the name of the variables?

Thanks.
