Information Model
What objects can be documented in Predict?
What needs to be added? Create a data model for Predict
containing vanilla and custom structures

Customizing Predict
UDEs – User Defined Entities Built in capability in Predict Supported in new versions of Predict Can interface with vanilla objects Retrieval models can be created UDEs are available for access via
Natural Accessed via SYSDICMA – Predict

Usage of Xtra Documents
Hyperlink Location Format Standards
Use Upload information? Download information? Destination and Interpretation Development vs. Production
![Page 22: Leveraging Predict What do you want to document? Mainframe Legacy Systems Web enabled systems Server Platform PC Platform WORD documents Excel Documents.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2d20/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Updating Predict
Uses Word Form and Entire Connections to interface with Predict. Word Form invokes Entire
Connections via ActiveX control. Data input into script which
“keys in” the information. Script watches for error
messages and transmits back via Word Form.
Allows Predict to maintain data “as expected” in the files.
![Page 23: Leveraging Predict What do you want to document? Mainframe Legacy Systems Web enabled systems Server Platform PC Platform WORD documents Excel Documents.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2d20/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Updating Predict Word forms are used to:
Enforce Standards Meet Predict requirements Define hyper-links to external
documents Move to Production Process
Forms and Xtra docs may be “saved” until completed.
Forms and Xtra docs “submitted” to DA for review.
Forms and Xtra docs “registered” through move to production approval process.
PAC used to control Predict information.

Using Existing Docs
Uses Word Macros to extract information.
Uses Excel Macros to Extract information.
Visio Macros extract information.
Extracted information placed in formatted text files.
Files used as input to Entire Connection scripts.
