Define Decollating Missions

After you have produced your sample output and have gathered the distribution information about your reports, you can define the information in Control-D.

You define one report decollating mission per batch job. If a batch job produces four reports, then you will define the instructions for handling the four reports in one report decollating mission.

You will define the required report decollating mission parameters using the screens of the Control-D Online facility. The definitions that you create will be saved in the Control-D decollating missions library. Note that because definitions are saved in a partitioned dataset, you should ensure that the PDS is backed up regularly. This protects against the loss of definitions due to some type of system error.

This section contains recommendations on specific parameters that you will define in your report decollating mission definitions. Below is a summary of the information that you will specify:

Each section in our overview corresponds to a relevant section of the report decollating mission parameters. Each section of parameters on the screen is separated with a double-dash line (=) as follows:
