User-Defined Function Keys.
This version of ALC allows menu administrators to define up to
14 different function keys per menu. Each function key can be
tied to an arbitrary program or command, and authority to
access a function key can be controlled by user and groups of
users.
-
Maintain Menus While Using
Them. Any user with *CHANGE authority to a
menu can use function keys to add, change, copy and
delete menu options while viewing the menu itself.
There is no need to learn a separate maintenance
program. A new pop-up window lets authorized users
quickly select maintenance tasks.
-
Last Used Information.
Information about the last time menu options were used
is now tracked. New reports allow administrators to
quickly list menu options that have/have not been used
since a given date.
-
Menu Initialization.
A new feature allows for a user-written program to be
called whenever a new menu is created. This makes it
easy to add a standard set of function keys and menu
options to every menu.
-
Block Move. Administrators
can now move entire blocks of menu options from one
location to another on a menu, eliminating the need to
move options one-by-one.
