Table 107 Report Editing (Ruler) Screen Selection Criteria
Criteria |
Description |
---|---|
RULER NAME |
Ruler name. Each edit format (ruler) has its own name. You can define different view and print rulers and the single mask ruler for the same report and use them according to your requirements. If the ruler name is omitted, a search is made for the name DEFAULT (that is, the default ruler). The field is filled automatically for mask ruler if the ruler exists. |
RULER TYPE |
Edit options can be applied for report viewing (VIEW), for printing (PRINT), or for report masking (MASK). |
REPORT NAME |
Name of a report from which to copy the ruler. |
JOB NAME |
Name of the job from which to copy the ruler. |
USER NAME |
Name of a user from which to copy the ruler. |
The report name, job name and user name should be filled in when you want to copy a previously defined ruler that is not defined for the report, job, or user. For example, to copy a ruler named JCLSCAN which you have already defined for report name JCL-MSG and job D4X0030, use the data in the screen segment above.
You do not have to fill in the user name. The user ID of the current entry is assumed. Whenever the report name, job name or user name is omitted, the values of the current entry are assumed.
NOTE: The mask ruler is applied before view and print rulers. Only authorized users have access to mask rulers.
