The APAPARM option is intended mainly for Category 4 output. It can be used for Category 3 output, and then the output is actually changed to Category 4 output. In certain cases, the APAPARM option may be required for Category 5 output.
The APAPARM option provides the ability to implement advanced AFP capabilities with minimum effort. Certain advanced AFP capabilities require application program modifications. When the APAPARM option is used, some of these capabilities can be implemented without having to modify application programs. In this way, the data center can take full advantage of many versatile AFP capabilities.
The APAPARM option is capable of assigning Page Formats and Copy Groups on a report level (not only on a DD statement level).
