Once you have decided the levels of the organization, you need to define them to Control-D. This is done in the CTDPARM member of the IOA PARM library. You assign a level code and level description for each level. For example:
40 DEPARTMENTS
where 40 is the level code and DEPARTMENTS is the level description.
Level codes are two-character, alphanumeric values that must be defined in ascending sequence (where 9 > 1 > Z > A). Normally the sequence is set as 10, 20, 30, 40, and so on.
The level description can be up to 20 characters long.
Define Level Information
Edit the CTDPARM member and define your level codes and descriptions under parameter TREE. Below is an example of level code and description definitions:
BROWSE -- IOAP.PROD.PARM(CTDPARM) - 01.12 ------- LINE 00000055 COL 001 080
COMMAND ===> SCROLL ===> CSR
TREE=(10,OPERATIONS, *00370003
20,DIRECTORS, *00380009
30,DIVISIONS, *00390009
40,DEPARTMENTS, *00400003
50,BRANCHES, *00410003
60,SECTIONS, *00420003
65,SUB-SECTIONS, *00430003
70,WORKERS, *00440003
90,CD-CONTROL, *00450003
95,OP-USER) 00460003
******************************** BOTTOM OF DATA ********************************
F1=HELP F2=SPLIT F3=END F4=RETURN F5=RFIND F6=RCHANGE F7=UP F8=DOWN F9=SWAP F10=LEFT F11=RIGHT F12=RETRIEVE
Make Changes to the Levels of the Tree
You can modify the definition of the tree at any time. New levels can be added without affecting the Control-D operation. However, changing a level code is a complex procedure that requires a global change to the current recipient tree and to the decollating missions. Therefore, we highly recommend that you maintain an interval between two successive levels, so that there will be a place to insert additional levels if required.
When a change is made to the level definition (for example, a new level is defined), the Control-D monitor should be shut down and brought back up again. We also recommend that users in the Online facility exit and re-enter.
Define Administration Levels
We reserved three levels for administration in the previous example. We have defined these levels as:
Table 19 Administration Levels
Level Code |
Level Title |
|---|---|
10 |
OPERATIONS |
90 |
CD-CONTROL |
95 |
OP-USER |
We use these levels to administer the tree and to receive specific output. It is on these levels that we will insert administration recipients. You should add similar administration levels to your tree.
Access the Defined Tree
Whatever you define in the TREE parameter in member CTDPARM is what will be displayed on the Recipient Tree entry panel (see below) when you enter the Online facility and select Option T.

FOR DIRECT ACCESS FILL IN RECIPIENT NAME IN APPROPRIATE LEVEL 11.03.10
Summary
It is into these levels that you will insert your recipient details. Normally, the higher up in the tree you insert a recipient, the greater the recipient’s authority will be, especially for Online Viewing purposes. Please note that an unlimited number of recipients may share a level.
Note: You should by now have defined the levels of your tree. Continue with Steps 2 to 4 in the basic method section.
