ON Blocks

Each ON statement starts an ON block. An ON block is comprised of an ON statement, ON Statement DEFAULTS and one or more WHEN statements paired with DO statements.

Below the default Decollating parameters on the screen, any number of ON blocks can be defined. Each ON block provides instructions for decollating a particular set of the job’s reports. The selection of reports covered by a single ON block can be specified by sysout CLASS, by CDAM parameters, by SYSOUT step or procedure name, or as SYSDATA, SYSLOG, SYSJCL or SYSMSG datasets.

Note: Decollating instructions included in an ON block override the general JOB DEFAULTS defined at the beginning of the decollating parameters.

ON Statement DEFAULTS can be specified within each ON block. These provide default decollating instructions for report pages in the ON block.
