Accessing the View Definition Panel from the Primary Panel

If you have master authority, you can use the DEF VIEW command from the Primary Selection panel. This method allows you to define global views pertaining to many SYSOUTs or reports, and public views.

When a user selects a report with the Vnnn line command, CA View uses private view nnn, if one is defined; otherwise, CA View uses public view Vnnn, if that view is defined. If private view nnn or public view nnn are not defined, the most specific global view nnn is used. The sequence of view selection is called the view hierarchy.
