CTMBLDAE Parameters

The parameters for the CTMBLDAE utility are specified in blocks in the SYSIN file. Blocks consist of the following mandatory parameters (described below):

CALLIB=input-calendar-library

CALMEM=input-calendar-member

OUTLIB=output-library

OUTMEM=[/]output-member

GEN=string

ENDCAL

More than one block of parameters can be specified.
Each parameter must be specified in each block. However, the parameters in each block can be specified in any order.
Note: In a parameter block, each parameter is specified only once. However, if a parameter is specified more than once in a block, only the last occurrence of the parameter in the block is accepted.
If more than one parameter block is specified, each parameter block must be delimited by parameter ENDCAL.
Comment lines can be specified by coding * in column 1.
Parameter lines must not contain any TSO line numbers (in column 73 - 80).

Blocks of parameters are specified in the following format:

Table 92 CTMBLDAE Parameters

Parameter	Description
CALLIB	Name of the library containing the calendar to be used as input to the utility
CALMEM	Name of the member containing the calendar to be used as input to the utility
ENDCAL	Delimits parameter blocks. Mandatory.
GEN	String that forms the basis of the AutoEdit variables created by the utility. The usual format for this string is variable=expression where variable is a user-defined AutoEdit variable expression is a value or expression that resolves to a specific value The variable and/or expression can contain any of the following reserved words (substrings) that are replaced with the corresponding date values: ODAT – represents the date scheduled in the calendar, in yymmdd format. NEXT – represents the next date scheduled in the calendar, in yymmdd format. PREV – represents the previous date scheduled in the calendar, in yymmdd format. ODAY – represents the day scheduled in the calendar, in dd format. OMONTH – represents the month scheduled in the calendar, in mm format. OYEAR – represents the year scheduled in the calendar, in yy format. $ODAT – represents the date scheduled in the calendar, in yyyymmdd format. $NEXT – represents the next date scheduled, in yyyymmdd format. $PREV – represents the previous date scheduled in the calendar, in yyyymmdd format. $OYEAR – represents the year scheduled in the calendar, in yyyy format. $OCENT – represents the first two digits, in the yyyy date format (for example, 20 in 2000). PERIOD – represents the one-character period designation of the scheduled day, when the CALMEM calendar is periodic.
GEN	The variable and/or expression can also contain the reserved substring, %%##. This substring represents a sequential line number for each line generated by the utility.
OUTLIB	Name of the library to which the AutoEdit member, created by the utility, is written
OUTMEM	Name assigned to the AutoEdit member created by the utility.
