Use database as JOBID when using script upload to Accutrace

If you would like to use the database name as the JOBID for a file that you're uploading automatically in a script, you can use the following command.

Open your script, and create a new event. Make it a Command event.

Create a new command.

Name it JOBID in script or something that would make sense.

In the command statement syntax below copy/paste the following command.

com_PresortFolder=ADDBS(JUSTPATH(DBF("_azqualification")))
com_jobid=justfname(forceext(dbf(),""))
ocomEditIni=CREATEOBJECT('editini')
ocomEditIni.IniPath=com_PresortFolder+"Presort.ini"
ocomEditIni.AddIfNotFound=.T.
ocomEditIni.Sectionhdr='[MAILDAT]'
ocomEditIni.Searchfor='JOBID='
ocomEditIni.Replacewith=TRANSFORM(com_jobid)
ocomEditIni.UpdateIni()

Make sure to place this command after the presort event and before the Upload to AccuTRACE event in the script.

If you're not presorting, use this instead:

ocomEditIni=CREATEOBJECT('editini')
ocomEditIni.IniPath=FORCEEXT(DBF(),"ini")
ocomEditIni.AddIfNotFound=.T.
ocomEditIni.Sectionhdr='[ACCUTRACE]'
ocomEditIni.Searchfor='JOBID='
ocomEditIni.Replacewith=TRANSFORM(com_jobid)
ocomEditIni.UpdateIni()

ocomEditIni.Sectionhdr='[ACCUTRACE]'
ocomEditIni.Searchfor='NOTICEEMAIL='
ocomEditIni.Replacewith="youremail@email.com"
ocomEditIni.UpdateIni()

As a new customer of Accuzip, I just wanted to thank you for all of Accuzip’s help and patience with us in preparing this job so well. Our particular thanks to your technicians for multiple support calls and emails with our elementary questions while we learned on-the-job. Frankly, none of us had any experience with postal regulations or mail list technology, so we are especially grateful to have had them as a resource. Please tell them how much we appreciate their help!
