Spool Parameter Requirements
IN
WHEN IN QUEUE Y TIME FROM UNTIL INTERVAL PRIORITY
DSN
If you are decollating output directly from spool, your report decollating missions will automatically wait for the output to appear before they start to execute (WHEN IN QUEUE parameter defaults to Y). If two or more jobs with the same job name, as specified in the report decollating mission, are found in the queue when the report decollating mission starts to execute, it will select the job that finished executing last.
If you rerun the same batch job a few times in one day, the report decollating mission will not execute again unless you rerun it manually (option RERUN of the Active Missions screen), or unless you have defined the report decollating mission with a tasktype of CPR (which defines it as a Cyclic report decollating mission, able to execute multiple times).
Note that Non-held Output will be deleted from spool after decollation.
Report decollating missions "attach" themselves to the job name and job number of the particular job they are handling. If you reschedule a report decollating mission to reprocess a Held output, you must HOLD the previously executed report decollating mission (option H on the Active Missions screen) so that the new mission can gain access to decollate the same output.
