    In general, Abbreviation is a short form of a long word or phrase. A T24 user would not
    like to type in the full application name everyday to invoke some frequently used
    application. It would be much easier for the user if an abbreviation exists for the
    application. Abbreviations have been introduced in T24 to avoid using long T24
    Application names , longer version names and to customise T24 commands for the
    user

    CUS1.Creating Abbreviations 3
    Lets take a look at how to invoke an application from the command prompt. You type
    in the application name at the command prompt, FUNDS.TRANSFER in this example
    and the application is launched in a new window. Don’t you think it would be easier to
    type ‘FT’ instead of ‘FUNDS.TRANSFER’ to invoke the funds transfer application?

    In this illustration you see how to invoke a version for money market application. As a
    first step, create a version for the application. The version is invoked by typing the
    application name followed by a comma and the version name. The version is launched
    in the new window. Again it much be much easier for the end user if the version is
    abbreviated.

    CUS1.Creating Abbreviations 5
    ABBREVIATION application in T24 is used to create abbreviations for applications,
    versions and enquiries. To create an abbreviation, say MM for Money Market
    application, the ID for the abbreviation application is entered as ‘MM’. Lets take a look
    at the fields in this application.

    ID :The actual abbreviation can be any alphanumeric text.

    ORIGINAL TEXT :The actual text that would have been entered in the command line.
    It is a mandatory field.
    This field contains the original Application, Function command or record ID for which
    the abbreviation was created.

    CUS1.Creating Abbreviations 6
    Now lets learn how to invoke the application with the abbreviation you just created.

    1. At the command prompt type MM to invoke the money market application.


    2. The application is launched in a new window as illustrated.

    CUS1.Creating Abbreviations 7
    To create an abbreviation for a version MM.MONEY.MARKET,CHGBROK ,create an
    abbreviation record with ID as the abbreviation you want to use, say MMCHGBROK.
    Don’t forget to commit and authorize the record.

    CUS1.Creating Abbreviations 8
    To invoke the version, type MMCHBROK at the command prompt. This is the ID of the
    abbreviation record.

    This launches the version created for the money market application in a new window.

    CUS1.Creating Abbreviations 9
    How do you invoke an enquiry in T24? You type in ENQUIRY.SELECT followed by the
    enquiry name. For easy use, an abbreviation record ENQ is created with the Original
    Text set as ENQUIRY.SELECT. So you can use ENQ instead of typing
    ENQUIRY.SELECT to invoke an enquiry.

    CUS1.Creating Abbreviations 10
    Now that you have created an abbreviation ENQ for an enquiry, lets launch the enquiry
    for PROTOCOL application. At the command prompt type ENQ followed by the
    enquiry, say %PROTOCOL in this example. This brings up the selection criteria box
    for the enquiry in a new window as illustrated.

    CUS1.Creating Abbreviations 11
    Create an abbreviation for the Customer application and have the abbreviation id as
    CUST.

    Now try to create an abbreviation with id as CUST1, for the abbreviation CUST which
    was just now created and check whether it works.
