<p align="left"> _"APPX has a convention of Option 98 for audit information. We would like to continue with that convention within our design._ _How do we do it?"_ </p>

Add an Option/98 as an Optional Child to run:

<pre>Application ID: 0AD
  Process Type: INPUT
  Process Name: AUDIT INFO</pre>

... and in Pre-Invocation ...

<pre>SET     0AD AUDIT DATE ADD  =  1EX ORDER1 DATE ADD
SET     0AD AUDIT DATE CHG  =  1EX ORDER1 DATE CHG
SET     0AD AUDIT USER ADD  =  1EX ORDER1 USER ADD
SET     0AD AUDIT USER CHG  =  1EX ORDER1 USER CHG
INVERSE                     </pre>

... and in Post Invocation ...

<pre>NORMAL                      </pre>

In older versions of APPX the 0AD INPUT process 'AUDIT INFO' only works if your application is also using version 00. If it uses some other version, then it won't work. If you develop in 00 but use 01 as production, it will work while you test it, then fail when you move it to production.

The process itself is pretty simple. You're better off writing your own, and using the same technique as the 0AD, i.e. display work fields on the screen, and have the calling process set values into the work fields before invoking it.
