With a hierarchical selection, CA IDMS Extractor automatically selects all records and sets accessible walking down the structure, that is, from owner to member. When you make a hierarchical selection of a record or index, CA IDMS Extractor marks it as an Entry Record or Entry Index. All members of sets owned by the Entry Record or Entry Indexed record, which do not already participate in a path and which are not indexed by an Entry Index, are selected in the path. All selected records that are themselves owners of sets are subject to the same selection process as the Entry Record.
There is an exception to the hierarchical selection process regarding a Bill-Of-Material (BOM) structure. The AUTOMATIC member of the BOM set is selected walking from the BOM record to the junction record. The MANUAL member of the BOM set is selected walking from the junction record to the BOM record.
The Record Level Selection Criteria from all records selected in this manner indicate to extract all record occurrences. You may modify the selection criteria of any or all of these records to limit the number of records extracted.
