NDVRDSEL Output File (ddname NDVRENO)

The NDVRENO file contains 80 character records in display format. It is the hub of the CA Endevor/DB Promotion Support System and is used in all subsequent promotion support facilities for control, detail, and backoff information. Italic items are generated internally by NDVRDSEL and placed in the output file. Other items are passed into the output file from the input specifications. The NDVRENO file contains the following generated syntax:

SOURCE  SYSTEM [NAME] [IS | =] source system name
       {DBNAME | DICTNAME} [IS | =] dictname   | ' '
       VERIFY DATE = mm/dd/yy  TIME = hh:mm:ss
       .

TARGET SYSTEM [NAME] [IS | =] target system name
       [{DBNAME | DICTNAME} [IS | =] dictname].

[MODE  [IS | =] {TRIAL | EXECUTE | BACKOFF} .]

[INPUT [IS | =] {FILE | DATABASE.]

[SIGNOUT       [TO] {USER | CCID} [NAME] [IS | =] signout name .]

[INCLUDE
       [FROM [DATE] [IS | =] mm/dd/yy ]
       [THRU [DATE] [IS | =] mm/dd/yy ]
       [ALL]
       [{MGRP | CCID | USER} [NAME] [IS | =] select name
       |'']
       [WHERE STATUS [NAME] [IS | =] status value] ].

[EXCLUDE       [WHERE] STATUS [NAME] [IS | =] status value
               [WITHIN CCID [NAME] [IS | =] status value ] ].

[EXPAND        IDD {CHANGE} | HIERARCHY}[RELATIONSHIPS].]

[WARN  [WHERE]
       [CCID [IS | =] MULTIPLE]
       [CCID [IS | =] NULL]
       [USER [IS | =] MULTIPLE]
       [USER [IS | =] NULL] .]

LIST FOLLOWS .

 ENT type  entity name  vvvv.
 ENT type  entity name  vvvv.
       .
       .
       .

One entity or ENT statement is created for each entity INCLUDEd. If that entity was also EXCLUDEd, the statement would be commented out with an "*" in column 1.

Note: The comment causes the Correlation Processor (NDVRDCOR) and the Delivery Processor (NDVRDLVR) to ignore the statement. If you want to include any excluded entity, simply remove the leading "*". To manually include an entity, edit the file and add an ENT statement according to the free form syntax above.

When running the NDVRENO file back into NDVRDSEL as NDVRENI (with INPUT=FILE), the generated syntax preceding LIST FOLLOWS is ignored. The ENT statements are processed against the selection criteria and the CCDB. New ENT statements may be added or old ones deleted as required, through standard editors. Selection criteria are always taken from the NDVRIPT file and placed in the output file regardless of the INPUT option. The most recently generated syntax is therefore echoed by subsequent migration utilities for informational purposes.

If you construct an NDVRENI file manually, be sure to start with a LIST FOLLOWS command. The ENT statements are formatted as follows:
