Parameters and their meaning

The command has the following parameters

Parameter	Value		Description
FRMPATH			Name of the input path in the IFS file system. If the command in the i-effect SERVER IFS server entry should be entered as *USERDEFINED processing step, the %IFSPATH% server variable can be used.
FRMIFSFILE			Name of the input file in the IFS file system without path. If the command in the i-effect SERVER IFS server entry should be entered as *USERDEFINED processing step, the %IFSFILE% server variable can be used.
FRMCCSID			The CCSID of the input file. Default is 1252.
CASE	*YES		Upper and lower case is observed
	*NO		is not case sensitive
REPLACE			Here you determine which search pattern is replaced with which value in the input file. You can define up to 50 replacement patterns here.
	Element 1		This element defines a search pattern to be searched for.
		HEXsearchString	By specifying the character string HEX before the actual search pattern, the character string to be searched for can be specified in hexadecimal notation. To replace a ';' character at the end of a line ( hexadecimal value x'540d25') with a line feed (hexadecimal x'0d25'), you can use the following parameter definition: CODE `REPLACE((HEX5E0D25 HEX0D25))` To remove a line feed the following parameter definition can be used: CODE `Beispiel: REPLACE((HEX0D25))`
	Element 2		This element defines the replacement string with which each string value found in element 1 is replaced.
		HEXString	By specifying the character string HEX before the actual replacement string, the replacement can be specified in hexadecimal form. CODE `REPLACE((HEX5E0D25 HEX0D25))`
		*CRLF	The string found is replaced with a line feed (CRLF). CODE `REPLACE((HEX5E0D25 *CRLF))`
		*ADDCRLF	A line feed (CRLF) is added to the found string. CODE `REPLACE((HEX5E0D25 *ADDCRLF))`
USESEPCHAR	*YES		With the setting *YES Edifact files can be read out segment by segment.
	*NO
USEBUFFER	*YES		With the setting *YES you can control the buffer processing, which ignores CRLF/LF/Edifact separators and reads the file after large buffer sections. With this setting, RPLSTRIFS runs much better.
	*NO
