program group
Organizational unit of programs in the internal session. There is always one
main program group and a number of optional
additional program groups. Each program group has a
main program. An additional program group is always created when
function groups and
class pools are loaded.
If, however, using a program that is not a function group or class pool causes the program to be loaded, it is loaded into the program group of the consumer. All programs of a program group share the
interface work areas
declared using TABLES,
NODES, and COMMON
PART. Within a program group, CALL SCREEN can only be used to call the
dynpros of the main program.
