What Is an Interleave Identifier?

An interleave identifier is a single character—usually a letter from A–Z, a digit from 0–9, or a national character ($, #, @)—that specifies where and how records in a SYSOUT data set are to be put together to create a report from interleaved records.

Interleave identifiers are inserted by report generators like the Report Program Generator (RPG). These identifiers are in the first or second column of a record, depending on whether a carriage control character is specified in the first column in the record format.

You specify interleave identifiers in CA Deliver the same way you specify report identification text.
