Source Transport Commands

This section describes the commands accepted by the Source Transport Utility.

EXPORT Command

The EXPORT command writes the specified entity to an external source file in the format acceptable to IMPORT. Authorization is checked for each command. You can export only one copy of an entity in a run. Exporting the same entity more than once to an external file results in a warning message.

This command has the following format:

       {{{ DVW }                                        }}
       {{{ PGM }      [        { nnn  } ]               }}
EXPORT {{{ PNL } name [VERSION { PROD } ] [SYSTEM sss]  }}
       {{{ RPT }      [        { LAST } ]               }}

       MEM mem‑name [USER uuu]

If not specified here, the version, system, and user are obtained from the appropriate SET EXPORT command. You must specify the version and system for programs, panels, or reports if they are not specified on a SET EXPORT command. When you do not specify a user on either command, the current user ID is used.
