Set Statements

SET statements are global default statements that establish values for subsequent element action statements. A SET statement establishes applicable keyword values (for example, FROM and TO) for specific items that may be omitted from selected action statements. If a certain parameter is used (or required) but not coded in a particular action statement, CA Endevor SCM looks for that information in a corresponding SET statement.

SET statements also allow consistency across several actions. If you want to use a particular option (such as CCID or comments) for several actions or perform actions against those elements in a specific location (TO or FROM), code the appropriate SET statement. The data you enter is applied to every subsequent action. SET statements are in effect until another SET statement or a CLEAR statement is encountered or processing ends.

You can define the following SET statements:

• SET ACTION
• SET BUILD
• SET FROM
• SET OPTIONS
• SET STOPRC
• SET TO
• SET WHERE
