- Comprehensive journal analysis for finding and reporting data transactions
- Powerful comparison tools to search for differences at the library, object or data level of an application
- Very easy to use
- All information may be displayed or printed; many reports may be exported in text or Microsoft Excel format
- MDXREF is included free with MDCMS so that the developer can quickly navigate through the objects of an application

MDXREF is a powerful, time-saving tool that tracks and reports on the inter-relationship of all files and objects in application libraries on an IBM AS/400. This is an important cross-referencing tool for a company performing ongoing modifications or if the company is responsible for issues found in an application.
MDXREF takes less than 1 hour to install/re-install and comes with an easy-to-use set of interactive programs to provide whatever type of cross-referencing information the user is looking for. The information may also be printed to a report or viewed electronically.
Also, if purchasing MDCMS with MDXREF, application changes are automatically captured for the MDXREF database and all related objects may be requested for modification at once.
File Referencing
- all fields defined for a file
- the sort sequence of a file
- the data contained in the file
- logical file indexes over a physical data file
- automated file overrides or copies to other files
- display/printer file field references to other files
- all programs that use a file and how the file is used
- all queries using a file
- CL programs using files with FMTDTA or OPNQRYF commands
Process Flow
- all programs calling a program, command, or query
- all commands invoking a program
- all menues calling a program, command, or query
- reporting facility to show the entire process flow of an application as well as all files used by the process flow
Comparison Functions
- compare libraries to check for missing or duplicate objects within or across applications
- compare objects to check for differences
- compare file formats
- compare the actual data stored in files
Journal Analysis
- view all updates to data in a customizable, easy-to-read format
- filter the updates by user, program, date, or field values
Other Highlights
-
automatically identifies all database and program references system-wide
-
allows for logical subsets of cross-reference information by application
-
supports ALL AS/400 programming languages
- can be used to greatly assist in all other application changes
