Code-First Screen Flows

Code-First Screen Flows

AtomIQ builds a UI state machine from source—without a live 3270 or IMS Connect session. Open a saved UI Flow operation and select Flow.

  1. Open or create a UI Flow operation from a screen or program root (Call hierarchy).
  2. Select Analyze UI flow.
    • CICS: HANDLE AID, EVALUATE EIBAID, SEND / RECEIVE MAP, and program links.
    • IMS-DC: CBLTDLI / AIBTDLI PF-key branches, CHNG MOD or transaction switches, and SPA conversational carry.
  3. For CICS + BMS, select Suggest successful flow to choose an ordered path among validated transitions.
  4. Mark map fields as IN or OUT.
  5. Upload to Hub is CICS + BMS only. It creates a screen trail, assets, and a terminal Screens Flow in the configured Hub project. IMS-DC analysis stays in AtomIQ.

AI may enrich descriptions and choose a CICS path, but state IDs and function-key transitions remain parser-owned.

Analyze a UI state machine from COBOL plus BMS or MFS. Upload to Hub is CICS + BMS only.
