Defining Reports Created from Interleaved Records › What Is an Interleave Identifier? › Order of Records in Data Sets

Order of Records in Data Sets

The previous illustration shows records in a logical grouping, but SYSOUT records from different reports can be mixed. Note the following:

• CA Deliver processes interleaved records in the order in which they are encountered.
• The records must remain in the same relative order in any one report identified by the same interleave identifier.

For example, the records in the previous illustration can be reorganized as shown in this illustration, but they still produce the exact same reports.
