General (CTM)

Certain utilities accept selection criteria that determine which records are processed when the utility runs. These selection criteria are specified as expressions in INCLUDE / EXCLUDE statements that are supplied as parameters to the utility.

INCLUDE / EXCLUDE statements are grouped into blocks. An INCLUDE / EXCLUDE block consists of INCLUDE statements followed by corresponding EXCLUDE statements.

A combined maximum of 1000 INCLUDE / EXCLUDE statements can be specified.

INCLUDE / EXCLUDE expressions, statements and blocks are described on the following pages.

The fields specified in a INCLUDE / EXCLUDE block must be from the same types of table records.
