Using the Sample EXTDATA Reports

Hundreds of sample EXTDATA reports are provided with CA JARS Resource Accounting. They are summarized in the order of their numbers in the following table. They are summarized by function in the tables after that. Reports with more than one function are listed in multiple tables.

An example of each report is provided in the rest of this guide, organized into chapters by function. The index at the end of this guide allows you to go directly to the reports for each SMF or EXT record type.

The JCL used to produce the CA Easytrieve reports is located in the CAJRJCL member CAJRRPTZ. CAJRRPTZ uses a CA Easytrieve PROC, CAJREASY, which is located in CAJRPROC.

The JCL used to produce the CA Earl reports is located in the CAJRJCL member CAJRRPT. CAJRRPT uses an Earl PROC, CAJREARL, which is located in CAJRPROC.

Sample CA Earl and CA Easytrieve EXTDATA report control statements are contained in the CAJREARL and CAJREZTR libraries. All sample reports have record selection criteria to ensure that only the EXTDATA records required to produce the report are input into the report program. Some sample reports require additional selection criteria or other user modification to set selection variables to match your requirements. For example, some RMF reports are only valid if one SYSID is input.

If you attempt to run a sample report and receive messages from the report writer indicating that no records were selected, examine the EXTDATA control statement that was used to produce the CA JARS account file. It will show you if you requested the required EXTDATA for the sample report you are attempting to create.

Sample reports that require editing are identified in this guide. For more information on the EXTDATA control statement, see the User Guide.

Note: The following table lists the CA Easytrieve member name for each sample report. The sample reports are also provided in CA Earl. To produce a CA Earl report, use the member name ERXTnnnn, instead of EZXTnnnn.
