  1. DAFUI Data And Function Union Interface

  2. DAFUI • Change flat file formats with no coding • Eliminates or minimizes programming tasks • Shorter time to market with less development time, reduced coding, and fewer testing cycles • Reduces resources, time to completion, and costs

  3. DAFUI CHARACTERISTICS • Character based data routing / manipulation is not limited to fields • Fields can be redefined dynamically with no programming structure changes • Buffer overruns are virtually impossible • Create DB-like views of flat data through a graphical interface

  4. Why it is easy • Input to output mapping done using pictures • Data is associated with editing and processing functions pictorially • Better accuracy can be assured by using actual data records to map interfaces • Portable to 99% of hardware and software platforms • No databases need to be set up or managed

  5. Why it is easy • No special operating system or special environment required • Easy and fast learning curve – interfaces can be specified in your favorite editor and saved as a generic text file (no need to learn a new environment )

Output Data Destination Structure Input Data Source Structure | | | | | | | | | | • Paul Saunier 25306088456408261969000157500003337100Westfield,NJ, 07076TEXT Westfield,NJ, 0 • 0826 • 1969 • 3337100 • Paul • 00015750000 • Saunier • 253060884564 • Westfield,NJ, 0Saunier Paul00015750000253060884564196908263337100

  8. Current Art – Text Based Data Definintion Define Output: ( abbreviated ) outAddressPic X(15). outLastNamePic X(14). outFirstNamePic X(18). outAmountPic X(11). outAcctNumberPic X(12). outDateYYYYPic X(4). outDateMMPic X(2). outDateDDPic X(2). outPhnNumPic X(7). Define Input: ( abbreviated ) inFirstName Pic X(10). inLastName Pic X(12). inAcctNumber Pic X(12). inDateMM Pic X(2). inDateDD Pic X(2). inDateYYYY Pic X(4). inAmount Pic X(11). inPhnNumPic X(7). inAddress Pic X(24). • Move inFirstName of input to output of outFirstName • Move inLastName of input to output of outLastName • Move inAcctNumber of input to output of outAcctNumber • Move inDateMM of input to output of outAcctNumber • Move inDateDD of input to output of outDateDD • Move inDateYYYY of input to output of outDateYYYY • Move inAmount of input to output of outAmount • Move inPhnNum of input to output of outPhnNum • Blah • Blah • Blah etc

  9. Current Art – Script Based Function Directives • Write the program to move fields from the input to the output. Ex: Move inFirstNameto outFirstName. (for each field) • Compile the program, Bind, link, etc. • Move the object to testing area • Test it – format correct? , if not, go back and start over. • Really ! ?

  12. Done ! • Easily adjustable. No re-coding, no compiling: faster, cheaper, less risk, short time to market

  13. What else can be accomplished? • You just observed the most simple function available in DAFUI technology. It can do much more. • Multiple output files can be specified, each in its’ own format. • Multiple input files can be joined using a common key field.
