The following code shows the Event Definition screen:

---------------------- K15 EVENT DEFINITION SCREEN ------------------------

The screen is divided into three sections of parameters, as described in the following table:

Table 117 Event Definition Screen Sections

Section	Description
Dataset Name	This section contains one parameter for the name of the dataset event. DSNAME - Name of the dataset event (the dataset whose appearance triggers the operation).
‘JOB’ TYPE PARAMETERS	This section lists parameters that are relevant only if the event must trigger the scheduling of a job. SCHED. LIB. - Library containing the job scheduling definition of the job to be scheduled. TABLE NAME - Table containing the job scheduling definition of the job to be scheduled. JOB NAME - Name of the job to be scheduled. If blank, the entire table is ordered. ODATE - Date to schedule the job. Valid values are ODAT or a four‑character date in mmdd or ddmm format (depending on the site standard). FORCED SCHED. - Indicates whether to force the job if it will not otherwise be scheduled. Valid values are: o Yes – Force the job. o No – Do not force the job. Default.
‘COND’ TYPE PARAMETERS	This section lists a parameter that is relevant only if the event must trigger the addition or deletion of a prerequisite condition. FUNCTION - Function to perform. Valid values are: o Add – Add the specified condition o Delete – Delete the specified condition. CONDITION NAME - Prerequisite condition to be added or deleted. Note: Long condition names cannot be used in Connect Direct event definitions. CONDITION DATE - Date associated with the prerequisite condition. Valid values are: o DATE (system date) o WDATE (Control‑M working date) o STAT (not date-dependent - a four-character date in mmdd or ddmm format (depending on the site standard)

Description

Dataset Name

This section contains one parameter for the name of the dataset event.

DSNAME - Name of the dataset event (the dataset whose appearance triggers the operation).

‘JOB’ TYPE PARAMETERS

This section lists parameters that are relevant only if the event must trigger the scheduling of a job.

SCHED. LIB. - Library containing the job scheduling definition of the job to be scheduled.
TABLE NAME - Table containing the job scheduling definition of the job to be scheduled.
JOB NAME - Name of the job to be scheduled. If blank, the entire table is ordered.
ODATE - Date to schedule the job. Valid values are ODAT or a four‑character date in mmdd or ddmm format (depending on the site standard).
FORCED SCHED. - Indicates whether to force the job if it will not otherwise be scheduled. Valid values are:
o Yes – Force the job.

o No – Do not force the job. Default.

‘COND’ TYPE PARAMETERS

This section lists a parameter that is relevant only if the event must trigger the addition or deletion of a prerequisite condition.

FUNCTION - Function to perform. Valid values are:
o Add – Add the specified condition

o Delete – Delete the specified condition.
CONDITION NAME - Prerequisite condition to be added or deleted.
Note: Long condition names cannot be used in Connect Direct event definitions.
CONDITION DATE - Date associated with the prerequisite condition. Valid values are:
o DATE (system date)

o WDATE (Control‑M working date)

o STAT (not date-dependent - a four-character date in mmdd or ddmm format (depending on the site standard)

To define an event and corresponding operation, fill in the DSNAME and either the JOB or the COND type parameters (only one type can be used in each definition), and press Enter.

Note: If you selected an existing event in the Event List screen, only the screen section relating to that event (JOB or COND) is displayed and the screen is called the Event Modification screen. Modify the event as desired and press Enter.
