Supported operations

Each business object is associated with an operation. WebSphere Adapter for IBM i supports three different operations: GetQueue, PutQueue, and CallPGM.

In the external service wizard, you specify a name for the operation. This name can be anything meaningful to you, such as GetMessageFromQueue or CallPGMbatch. The following table defines the operations that the adapter supports.

CallPGM The CallPGM operation invokes an RPG or COBOL or service program (SRVPGM) on an IBM i system
