Each User Daily job uses a special Date Control record to store the last running date for the User Daily job. A Date Control record is a member in the Control‑D PARM library in which relevant date information is placed during New Day processing.
The Date Control record is analyzed by the User Daily job to determine the current running date, the last running date, and possible error situations. This date information is used to manage the ordering of missions during New Day processing.
When a User Daily job is run, the current working date is placed in the Date Control record. In addition, the Basic Scheduling parameters of each mission in the mission lists being ordered are compared to this date to determine if the mission must be placed in the Active Missions file.
The length of a Date Control record is 80 characters. The following table shows the format of the Date Control Record and describes each date in the record:
