Batch Processing › Creating Multiple Reports in One Job

Creating Multiple Reports in One Job

To create several reports in one batch run, enter the CA OLQ processing statements sequentially in your input data stream. The DISPLAY command places the start of each report on a new page, and resets the page count to 1.

Example:

This batch run creates two reports: one listing the names of employees living in Boston and one listing the names of employees living in Medford:

DEFINE FILE INFILE RECORD EMPLOYEE (1) DICT TESTDICT
SET OPTION SPARSE
GET ALL SEQ INFILE.EMPLOYEE WHERE EMP-CITY-0415 EQ
 BOSTON
DIS COLS EMP-NAME-0415 EMP-CITY-0415
GET ALL SEQ INFILE.EMPLOYEE WHERE EMP-CITY-0415 EQ
 MEDFORD
DIS COLS EMP-NAME-0415 EMP-CITY-0415
