Overview

This manual provides information about:

• CA-supplied user modules that can be invoked to perform tasks that fall beyond the scope of standard CA Culprit report processing
• Customized user modules that can be written to perform site-specific processing for CA Culprit reports

A basic knowledge of CA Culprit coding techniques is assumed throughout this manual:

• Users familiar with CA Culprit coding techniques can use this manual as a reference for invoking CA-supplied user modules.
• Experienced CA Culprit users with programming backgrounds in COBOL, FORTRAN, PL/I, or Assembler can use this manual as a guide for writing customized modules not available on the CA Culprit installation media.
