Designed, coded, tested, debugged, and migrated components of a Front-End application, using the following ISPF Dialog Manager Tools: Panels, Messages, Tables and Skeletons, along with REXX Execs, which facilitated Subject Matter Expert’s (SME’s) identification and extraction of Endevor elements, to prepare for transfer to a LINUX-based system named, “Informatica”.
