Print options


The Print Options allow you to print change criteria and audit trail reports created during the update process. The Print Options function initiates batch print jobs. The format of the output is controlled by the Batch Product Option Variables described under Batch Parameters in the section Configuration parameters.

To select a print option: From the Utilities Selection Menu, type the selection number in the OPTION field and press <Enter>.

Print change criteria

The Print Change Criteria - Dataset Specification screen is displayed when you select option U.1 from the Primary Option Menu, or option 1 from the Utilities Selection Menu. This screen enables you to print the contents of an existing change criteria member. Temporary change criteria cannot be printed.

The Print Change Criteria - Dataset Specification screen, shown in the following figure, is displayed.

Field Descriptions

Specify Change Criteria Information:

Dataset name

Enter the change criteria dataset name to print.

You can enter a pattern data set name in this field to display a list of data sets from which you can make a selection. A pattern data set name or mask consists of explicit characters or a combination of explicit and pattern characters. For more information, see Pattern Data set Names in section Specifying a data set name.

Member name

Specify the member name. You can leave this field blank or enter a pattern member name to display a list of members from which you can make a selection. A pattern member name or mask consists of explicit characters or a combination of explicit and pattern characters. See Pattern Member Names in section Specifying-a-dataset-name for a complete description. Pattern names cannot be entered in both the Dataset name and Member name fields at the same time.

Enter an asterisk (*) in the Member name field to print all members of a partitioned change criteria file.

Specify Batch JCL Information:

SYSOUT class

Enter the sysout class for the Change Criteria Contents Report. For more information, see Change Criteria Report.

Specify JOB Statement Information:

Enter the JOB statement JCL for the batch job.

After you complete the information on the screen, use the SUBMIT command to submit the batch job. You can edit the generated JCL before you submit it. Use the JCL command to display a ISPF/PDF Edit screen.

Use the END command (PF3) to exit the Print Change Criteria - Dataset Specification screen.

The Print Change Criteria function can also be executed as a separate step in a batch job by coding the appropriate JCL. See Executing Print Change Criteria Independently in Batch.

Change criteria report

The Change Criteria Report displays the record and field change criteria detail. Selection and execution options are printed first, followed by formatted field change criteria.

The options section of the report, as shown in the following figure, lists initial records to skip, subsequent selection interval, records to select, records to skip, number of records to search, and number of records to select.
