Source Generation Overrides

Model level—The model level override is stored in a system supplied message called *Sbmjob default override attached to the *Messages file. Edit this message to define model level overrides. Function and local overrides default to the model level.
Function Level—The F7 function key on the Edit Function Options panel lets you edit parameters for the SBMJOB command at either the model or the function level.

The Overrides if submitted job function option specifies the source of the SBMJOB parameter overrides and which level of overrides you are editing when you press F7. The values are:

Value	Description
*	Model level. Use the default overrides defined by the Sbmjob default override message attached to the Messages file in Y2USRMSG. Press F7 to edit the model level overrides.
F	Function level. Use the override defined for this function. You define or edit the function level default using F7 on the Edit Function Options panel. If not specified, it defaults to the model level override

To specify a function level override, set the function option to F and press F7 to edit the SBMJOB command parameters.

Note: You also need to specify F for the Overrides option on the Edit Action - Function name window in the action diagram for the function level overrides to take affect. You can also edit the function level overrides at that point.

Action Diagram (Local) Level—The Edit Action - Function name window provides two additional options for EXCEXTFUN, EXCUSRPGM, and PRTFIL functions:
- Submit job indicates whether the referenced function is to be submitted for batch execution:

Value	Description
Y	Submit the function to batch
N	Process the function interactively

Overrides specifies both the source of SBMJOB command parameter overrides and which override level you are editing when you press F7. Note that this parameter displays only if Submit job is set to Y.

Value	Description
*	Model level override. Use the model level override string stored in the *Sbmjob default override message. Press F7 to edit the model level overrides.
F	Function level override. Use the override specified by the Overrides if submitted job function option for the referenced function. You can edit the function option overrides by pressing F7.
L	Action diagram level override. Use the override that has been defined for this call. Press F7 to enter or edit local overrides.

To specify an action diagram level override set the Overrides option to L and press F7 to edit the SBMJOB command parameters.

Note: Local overrides do not update the action diagram until you save the function on exit. Function and model level overrides are updated immediately. If later you change the function that is to be submitted to batch, any local SBMJOB parameter overrides you previously specified are retained.
