RJERATE Statement

This optional statement lets you charge for remote (RJE) line utilization (BSC lines only). Refer to the SNARATE control statement for RJE SNA lines.

The set codes are optional. A blank in position 1 means the statement is used on all reports.

The RJERATE statement generates charges in either (or both) of two ways: as surcharges saved for remote line utilization, added to the other charges for all batch jobs which were submitted from and/or routed to an RJE terminal; as RJE session charges based on the statistics in RJE line utilization account records.

Job surcharges are calculated using the time and record rates as follows:

RJE Charge   =   (Time Rate x (Reader Duration   +
                            Printer Duration     +
                            Punch Duration))     +
                 (Record Rate x (Statements Read +
                  Lines Printed                  +
                  Statements Punched))  /1000

RJE session charges are calculated using the connect and transmission rates as follows:

RJE Charge =   (RJE Connect Time x Connect Rate)  +
               (RJE Transmission Count            x
                Transmission Rate)           / 1000

If a minimum session charge is specified, it is used if it is greater than the computed RJE charge. If job name and user information data are provided, they are placed in the job name and user information account record fields, respectively.

The following example illustrates a typical use of the RJERATE statement:

position   1         2         3         4         5              8
  1........0.........0.........0.........0.........0....       ...0
  ARJERATE XRJELINEA          00050001500750

On Report A, the CPU ID is X. The remote line name is RJELINEA. Users are charged $5.00/hour of connect time, plus $1.50/1000 records transferred. Minimum charge is $7.50. There are no rates for job surcharges.

Note: For the job surcharges, SNARATE and RJERATE are handled identically.

Note: Time Rate and Record Rate are applied to batch job records for jobs submitted from and/or routed to an RJE terminal.

Connect Rate, Transmission Rate, and Minimum Session Charge are applied to RJE line utilization account records.
