30 User’s Manual for InterForm400
®
You could work with spool entries of your own as input to the AFC_INPUT1 job. A new
spool entry will, after a while, appear in output queue AFC_OUT1 as a result of the
merge process. However, for best understanding of the example we recommend that
you create a demo spool entry according to the following description
Enter the InterForm400
®
menus again with the command APF3812/APFMENU. You will
this time be asked to select a file-set. Select file-set SAMPLE.
Select 80. Administering InterForm400
Enter 12. Service functions and select option 1. Create Demo Spool Entry (more info
on the demo spool entry on page 337)
You should now receive four pages on print queue AFC_OUT1 with text and Intermate
overlays. You will find a re-print of one of the pages in the printout in the following
section.
