The DTM Engine of DTM for iSeries is the core component of the architecture. It contains all the runtime functions required to resolve, export and print documents.

Next to , DTM V3 also has a Scriptura output format which enables you to gain more than 15 output formats and output channels.

The resolve operation executes the merge function and generates a document where the instructions have been replaced by actual data. The export operation converts a document generated by the resolve operation into a specific type of output file. The print operation combines the resolve operation and the generation of a spooled file.

The DTM Engine can be used through a number of CL commands like Print DTM Document ( PRTDTMDOC ), Resolve DTM Document ( RSLDTMDOC ) and Export DTM Document ( EXPDTMDOC ).

The documents generated by a merge operation can be stored as standard Notes documents in any Notes database on a Domino server. This way the documents can be further integrated in Notes based groupware or workflow applications.
