CREATE REPORT Command

The CREATE REPORT command or prompter creates the first version of a report definition by displaying a blank report identification fill‑in. This fill‑in establishes the report name and provides identification information. When you enter the report name, it becomes the current report and the editing procedure applies.

CA Ideal assigns a newly created report definition a version number of 1. This version of the report definition is in TEST status. You can edit it at any time as long as it remains in TEST status. After it is in PROD (production) status, you cannot modify it.

To display the CREATE prompter, select Option 2 on the Report Maintenance Menu or type CREATE on the command line and press the Enter key.

This command has the following format:

              [     {USING}      {*                     }]
CREATE REPORT [name {FROM }  DVW {auth‑id.dvw‑name      }]
                                 {dvw‑name [VERSION ver]}]
