The report header is eight lines of information in a standard format for all reports. Item A is introduced using the HEADER statement. See the HEADER Statement section in this chapter. Items C, D, E, and F are introduced using the SELECT Statement.
The left-hand items, C and D, start in the first print position. The righthand items, E, F, and G, adjust automatically to the computed print line length. The line length is based on the field length of the selected data elements and the number of blanks preceding each element as requested by you using the DISPLAY statement. See the DISPLAY Statement section in this chapter. Item B is determined by the DISPLAY statement; individual titles can be modified via the TITLE statement. See the TITLE Statement section in this chapter.
The top-of-page header line displays the report title for a given report as indicated by A. The starting print position for the report title is defined by you on the HEADER statement.
The operating cost is retrieved from the PARMS statement. If this value is not present or not relevant to a given report, item E is omitted.
The third line displays the report begin date and run date, items C and F, respectively.
The fourth line displays the report end date and the report page number, items D and G, respectively. The page number is a four-digit, zero-suppressed value.
These lines are intentionally blank on every report.
These lines display the titles of the selected output data elements at the print positions defined by you on the DISPLAY statement. The titles do not exceed the individual field lengths as indicated in the IMS Interface Output Data Elements Table later in this chapter.
