Batch Utility Reference › Batch Utility Statements › PANEL Statement

PANEL Statement

A PANEL statement designates a panel occurrence to be processed by a PROCESS statement. The following processes apply to panel occurrences:

• REPORT prints a screen image and report for specified panel occurrences.
• IMAGE prints a screen image for specified panel occurrences.
• DECOMPILE produces the default and non-default compiler source statements for specified panel occurrences. DECOMPILE also produces its output as card images with syntax in fixed locations, one statement clause per line. Therefore, use it when the definition may be modified.
• TERSE produces the non-default compiler source statements for specified panel occurrences. Because TERSE fills each line, it is not recommended if you want to edit the output. It should be used when the map is being backed up or migrated.

Parameters

ALL
