BMS, DSPF, and MFS Map Preview
BMS, DSPF, and MFS Map Preview
The Source Viewer maps tab renders linked screen maps as a visual green-screen layout and lets you assign screen types. Multiple linked maps appear in an accordion.
- BMS — CICS 3270 map definitions.
- DSPF / DDS — IBM i 5250-style display files (
.dspf,.dsp,.dds). - MFS — IMS device formats (
.mfs). Message chips switch between the whole screen and a MID or MOD descriptor.
Map previews derive from source descriptors; they are not live 3270, 5250, or IMS Connect sessions. For IMS details, see the IMS COBOL and MFS Maps topic.
