Use the Report Definition Attributes panel to specify report attributes.
Report definition attributes are a set of parameters you specify for a report.
For example, the LATE report definition attribute indicates the time when a report is to be marked late if it is not queued for printing.
By default, the system uses the attributes specified in the Job Control Language (JCL) for the reports. There is generally no need to specify overrides to the attributes in the report definitions.
However, you might want to add or modify some of the non-JCL attributes for reports—for example, late time, archive criteria, report description, and special instructions.

D - Distribution specifications. I - Special instructions. T - Report Identification text.
This list describes the attribute fields on the Report Definition Attributes panel:
The 1- to 40-character brief description of the report.
The 1- to 32-character archive report identifier.
Note:
If an Arch ID is provided, the report appears in CA View under that name.
This field is not displayed for dynamic type reports.
Enter 1 to 99 sets of criteria for archiving reports
Each set of criteria (which you define by an initialization parameter) specifies the following:
You can enter a blank or a value between 0 and 99 in this field.
Valid values are:
0 - Suppress the archiving of a report
Blank - Use the default value defined by the initialization parameter ARCH
Note: For more information about the ARCH parameter, see the Reference Guide.
Enter the name of the model banner page to print at the beginning and end of a report
Valid values are:
* - Suppress banner page printing
Blank - Print the default model banner page defined by the initialization parameter BANNER
Note: For more information about the BANNER initialization parameter, see the Reference Guide.
Specify whether a report is to be burst into separate sheets when it is printed on an IBM 3800 printer
Valid values are:
Y—Burst the report
N—Do nothing with the report
Blank—Use the value specified in the JCL for the job that created the report
Enter the type of carriage control characters to use in the report
Valid values are:
M—Use machine control characters
A—Use ASA control characters
A single-character identifier—Use the set of control characters you define
Blank—Use the carriage control specification from the DCB/ACB for the report
Enter the SYSOUT class for the report
Valid values are:
A single alphanumeric character—Use the SYSOUT class character you define
Blank—Use the SYSOUT class specified in the JCL for the job that created the report
Specify whether to print the report on single- or multi-part paper
Valid values are:
Y or Blank—Use the copies DD parameter that specifies the number of grouped distribution identifiers to use when the report is written to spool
N—Assume COPIES = 1
Note: For more information about the copies DD parameter, see the Reference Guide.
Enter the name of the forms control image to use to print a report
Blank--the forms control image specified in the JCL for the job that created the report is used.
'*'--The forms control image specified in the JCL for the job that created the report is ignored, and the report is printed as if no forms control image had been specified.
Enter the name of the special form on which the report is to be printed or punched
Blank -- The forms control image specified in the JCL for the job that created the report is used.
Note: OUTPUT JCL statements might not be available for processing; in this case, only the first four characters of the form are used.
OUTPUT JCL can be unavailable if the initialization parameter OUTPUT is set to OUTPUT=NO or is set to the default.
Enter the name of the forms overlay to be used when a report is to be printed on an IBM 3800 printer and the number of copies is to be flashed with the overlay
Blank --, The forms overlay name and count specified in the JCL for the job that created the report is used.
'*’ -- The forms overlay name and count specified in the JCL for the job that created the report is ignored. The report is printed as if no forms overlay name and count had been specified.
Enter the time as a 24-hour clock in an hh:mm format when a report is to be marked late if it is not queued for printing
Example: 09:35 represents 9:35 a.m., and 15:45 represents 3:45 p.m.
Blank -- The system does not check to see if the report is late.
Note: When you specify the late time, enter 00:01 (not 00:00) and 23:59 (not 24:00).
Specify whether the report contains IBM 3800 printer table reference characters
Y—The report contains IBM 3800 printer table reference characters
N or Blank—The report does not contain IBM 3800 printer table reference characters
Enter the name of the special character set used to print a report
Blank--The character set name specified in the JCL for the job that created the report is used.
'*' -- The character set name specified in the JCL for the job that created the report is ignored and the report is printed as if no character set name had been specified.
Enter the name of the form definition used to print a report on an IBM 3800 printing subsystem
Blank--The form definition name specified in the JCL for the job that created the report is used.
Note: If OUTPUT JCL statements are not available for processing (that is, if the initialization parameter OUTPUT is set to OUTPUT=NO or is set to its default), the form definition name is ignored.
Enter the name of the page definition to be used to print a report on an IBM 3800 printing subsystem
Blank--The page definition name specified in the JCL for the job that created the report is used.
OUTPUT JCL statements might not be available for processing; in this case, only the first four characters of the form are used.
Note: OUTPUT JCL can be unavailable if the initialization parameter OUTPUT is set to OUTPUT=NO or is set to the default,
Enter the process mode required to print a SYSOUT data set
Valid values are:
LINE—Sends the data set to a line mode printer
PAGE—Sends the data set to a page mode printer
Specific 1- to 8-character mode name—Sends the data set to a mode printer defined for your site
Enter the name of the printer setup member in the database used for a report
You can use this member to enter XEROX DJDE parameters or for any other information that you want to precede the report data.
If specified, the printer setup records are appended to the report immediately after the report banner page but before the first record in the report.
If omitted, printer setup records are not appended to the report.
Note: You use the RMODBASE utility PLOAD control statement to add PRSET members to the database. For more information, see RMODBASE in the Reference Guide.
Enter the priority for a SYSOUT data set to enter the output queue
You can specify a decimal value between 1 (lowest priority) and 255 (highest priority) or a space or 0. If a space or 0 is entered, it is treated as a null and it nullifies any existing PRTY value.
A higher priority data set prints sooner.
Enter the 1-8 character name of the output group to be used when the report is printed. Groupid is only valid on JES2 systems. If an archival copy of the report is sent to a View FSS collector, this name identifies the member name in the SARINDEX data set which contains archive control statements for the report.
Enter the names of the character arrangement tables that are used when a report prints on an IBM 3800 printer
Specify 1 to 4 names in this field.
Blank--The character arrangement table names specified in the JCL for the job that creates the report are used.
