The ERP system is DataFlo. The current systems are either running UniData or
UniVerse on Unix or NT or Windows. DataFlo has a Multi-Plant module for which
you would set up a UniData or UniVerse account (on the same system) for each
Plant - for example:
ACCOUNT-A could be Plant 0 in California
ACCOUNT-B could be Plant 1 in New Mexico
ACCOUNT-C could be Plant 2 in Florida
With the Multi-plant module a couple of the features are that the plants can be
setup to 'share' data (like General Ledger), to order from each other, and to
drop-ship (Order from 1 plant but ship to customer from another).
Jason,
I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish (need more info).
* If user is trying to logon are you searching to see what Plant the user
belongs in so you can log them onto to the correct account? You may wish to
look at program SYS.35 and try Executing the LOGTO command (as mentioned below).
* If user is at menu, they can use the LOGTO <AccountPath or AccountName> or
simply enter PLANT and choose which plant they wish to go to.
* If user is in an Inquiry screen, there are subroutines to allow you to pull
data from another account...
Note, I was with the DataFlo Tech Support from Budget Systems to DataWorks to
Epicor (16 years) and have since joined Kore Technologies.
Have a Great Day!

if each "plant" is on a different machine, and all machines
are running unix, you could use the rlogin command.
WARNING: rlogin has some very serious security risks however.
rlogin is the equivilent of a telnet without the username/password
authentication. There is an assumed trust between machines and
usernames.
