AutoEdit parameters

The parameters described in Table 10 are optional.

Table 10 AutoEdit Parameters of the Control-M/Restart Standalone Panel

Parameter	Description
OWNER	User ID of the job owner. Optional. The panel is displayed with the TSO user ID.
GLOBAL	AutoEdit library containing globally defined AutoEdit library variables. Mandatory. The panel is displayed with the site-defined default.
WDATE	Current working date. Mandatory. The panel is displayed with the current date as the default.
ODATE	Original scheduling date of the job. Mandatory. The panel is displayed with the current date as the default.
ENTER YES TO CONTINUE	Confirmation field to prevent the unintentional restart of a job. When blank, the operation is not performed. Specify YES to process the request.

The following points are noted about From Step/Proc and To Step/Proc values:

To perform processing on the whole job, enter $FIRST in field From Pgmstep. To perform processing from a specific step, specify the step name in the appropriate FROM PGMSTEP or FROM PROCSTEP fields.
Pgmstep name can be any specific program step name or $FIRST. $FIRST resolves to the first step of the job if procstep name is blank. Otherwise, $FIRST resolves to the first step in the procedure identified by procstep.
$ABEND and $EXERR are not recognized by Control-M/Restart. Do not specify them as step name values. $ABEND and $EXERR are valid only in job scheduling definitions.
If specifying a procstep name when there are nested procedures, specify the procstep name of the innermost procedure in which the program is included.

Note: AutoEdit resolution is performed at time of submitting the job. For example, if a job with the %%DATE AutoEdit date variable is submitted the day after the original run, the resolution of the variable varies from that of the original run.
