AUDIENCE:   CICS Application Programmers who will use SDF II to define BMS screen definitions and non programmers who will use SDF II to define BMS screen definitions. PREREQUISITES:   The participant should have a reasonable understanding of CICS Basic Mapping Support. DURATION:   1 day. Hands on. OBJECTIVES:   After completion of this course, delegates should be able: - To define BMS screens/panels and the its data structure in the CICS application program. - To understand the 3270 terminal field attributes/characteristics, so that they can define the optimum BMS screen.
