********************************* End of list *************
This panel displays the user fields to be included in the Cross-System
Work Extract record. The list of fields is initially populated by CICS PA using
the specified APPLID to locate the MCT. You can change the Include/Exclude
status of the fields, or delete unwanted fields, but when deleted
they cannot be reinstated. You can also modify the length of character
fields.
The options are:
- Exclude Indicator
- An asterisk * in this field indicates that the row is excluded
and will not be included in extract processing.
Use line action X to
reverse the Exclude indicator.
- Dictionary Definition
- The description of the user field in the format informalname
owner xnnn where:
- informalname is the CMF informal name for the field. This
is placed in the dictionary record of the Cross-System Work Extract
and can be used in subsequent reporting, for example, as the column
heading.
- owner is the CICS® component
that 'owns' the field.
- x indicates the data type:
- A - 32- or 64-bit count
- C - character string
- S - clock (both Time and Count parts are extracted)
- nnn is the field identifier. For Clock or Count fields,
this identifies which of the 256 clocks and 256 counts are extracted.
For character fields, it will always be 001.
- Character Field Length
- The length of the field in the extract record, for character user
fields only. If this length is shorter than the maximum length of
the field, the value is truncated in the extract. Values longer than
the field length are not allowed.
- Maximum Length
- The original length of the user field. For clock or count fields,
this is the length of the field in the extract record. For character
fields, this length can be overridden by changing the Char Length value.
