condition

User supplied, descriptive name of 1-20 characters. Only trailing blanks are allowed. Long condition names are not supported. Mandatory.

Note: A condition name should not begin with the "|" symbol and should not contain parentheses ( ) because these characters are used in defining Boolean logic for conditions.

dateref

Four character date reference. Mandatory. Valid values are:

• STAT – Static. Indicates that the condition (for example, PRINTER-READY) is not date dependent.
• ODAT – Control-M/Analyzer working date. Default.
• PREV – The previously scheduled activation date of the rule, determined when the rule is ordered by a balancing mission. If the rule is not scheduled by a mission, the previous working date is used.
• NEXT – Next scheduling date (determined when the rule is ordered by a balancing mission). If the rule is not scheduled by a mission, the next working date is used.
• **** – Any schedule date.
• $$$$ – Any schedule date.
• mmdd – Month and day of the schedule date of the job.
• ddmm – Day and month of the schedule date of the job.

The **** or date reference can only be used when opt is set to – (delete). When **** or $$$$ is specified, prerequisite conditions with the same name and any date reference are deleted.

opt

Indicates whether to add or delete the specified condition. Mandatory.

• + – Add (create) the prerequisite condition
