Identify Who Receives Which Reports

Reports that are to be distributed in their entirety to one or more users do not require any further information. For reports that are to be decollated into parts, you must identify a character string that is unique to the specific recipient or recipients (for example, a report header or title). Take note of the line and column ranges of the identifying strings; you will need this information for your report decollating mission definitions.

The identifying string may be a value that you can define as a recipient synonym (see "Using Synonyms" later in this phase). Synonyms can help make report decollating mission definition much easier.

Please note that you can determine the exact position of a string by viewing the report online using SDSF and the COLS command, or a similar application. This should make the task of identifying string locations simpler than doing so from a printed report page.
