Editing a report

You can edit a report from a selection list or from the End User Facility Report Maintenance panel.

Editing directly

Enter information in the following fields to edit a report entry from the End User Facility Report Maintenance panel:

Action
Enter E (for edit).
Report Owner
Enter the report owner (up to 8 characters). The report owner must be a valid primary or secondary SQLID or must be of the form T=tranid, where tranid is a valid CICS transaction identifier. For a tranid, reports associated with that transaction will be selected, rather than those with a particular owner. If you leave this field blank, your current SQLID will be used as a default.
Report Name
Enter the report name (up to 18 characters). You can use % and _ as wildcard characters in the name to process multiple reports. If you leave this field blank, % will be used as the default.

Editing from a selection list

To edit a report entry from the Report Selection List panel, you must enter the following field:

Action
Enter E (for edit).

Edit Report Registration panel

You can change attribute values from the Edit Report Registration panel. However, you cannot change the key values (report owner and report name) from this panel.
