Adding Records to an Existing Transaction File or Session Profile File 

From the initial Transaction File Editor screen, press  Edit File.  The
following screen appears:

[]
Type the name of the Transaction File or Session Profile file you want to add to. If it is not in the sign on group and account you will have to give this information too. Press Enter Filename. The first record in the file appears on your screen. Move to the record after which you want to add a record. Use Prev Record, Next Record or Goto Record to do this. Press Append Record. The following screen appears:
[]
Type the transaction type number of the record you want to add to the file, for example, 11400. Press Type No. Entered. The Transaction File Editor will not allow you to add transaction types in the wrong order, for example, Group 2 records after Group 3. If your transaction type is valid the screen which appears prompts you for values for each of its fields. Tab through the fields typing the relevant values in each, and then press Append Complete. The new record will be added in the relevant position in the file.
NOTE If you use both foreign address aliases and explicit foreign addresses, the browsing of transaction types 10000, 20400, 21000, 21100, 21200, 21300, 30200 and 30400 differs from normal. There is not enough room on the screen to show the Additional user information (Option 2): field. Once you have completed the fields shown on the first screen, press Append Complete. A screen appears containing the Additional user information (Option 2): field. Complete this and press Append Complete. The process continues normally as described below.
You can either continue to add new records in the same way or press No More Appends which returns you to the last record added. To save your changes, press End Of Edit. The function keys at the bottom of the screen change. Press Save Changes. To save the changed Transaction File with its original filename just press Filename Entered. To save the changed Transaction File as a new file, type the name you require before pressing Filename Entered.
