Control to spawned process - DomG - 07-03-2020

We are looking to introduce UFT automation but the pilot has ground to a halt because the legacy system (running on an iSeries terminal) invokes an external data capture process that is web based. 

While UFT handles both sides, has anyone any experience in starting a process on one application (in this case the iSeries) and then switching control to a web page and then switching back to the parent application?

Can UFT do such a thing or do we have to put the first script on hold, invoke another and when that has completed, continue with the first (or even a third)?

If I understand your problem correctly, it shouldn't be a problem. UFT can easily switch back-and-forth between the browser and terminal in a single script.

If there is anything precise that is troubling you, let us know.
