When a report decollating mission is scheduled by invoking program CTDRRQ from a production control system user exit, the following DD statements must be used:

• STEPLIB – IOA LOAD library (if not included in the MVS Linklist)
• DAAMF – Control‑D Active Missions file
• DAOUT – Output print file
• DALOG – IOA Log file
• DAGENUSR – Generic user names library (if this option is used at your site)

If the production control system does not have an appropriate exit or you do not want to use this method to schedule report decollating missions, there is an alternative. Most production control systems can produce a night plan report – a list of jobs to be executed during the night. This list can be used as input to a program that schedules report decollating missions by invoking program CTDRRQ.

The IOA SAMPLE library contains examples of production control system interfaces. Member $$INTER in the IOA SAMPLE library contains an index to these interfaces. A user‑written interface to CA‑7 (UCC7) is not officially supported but is available. For more information about the CA‑7 (UCC7) interface and interfaces to other production control systems contact BMC Customer Support.
