Us.link

This section describes the Universal Services- Link (us.link) application.

The us.link application replaces the old applications find, fill and fill.recurse for several reasons:

To take advantage of the current Service Management environment in order to speed up transactions.
To have a common rule base behind each of these applications.
To make the find/fill process easier to debug.

The us.link is responsible for selecting the correct records from the correct file and then passing control to either us.find or us.fill.

The find, fill, and fill.recurse applications are now single panels calling the us.link routine. No changes are necessary to existing code that calls one of these routines.
