Required JCL and Files

The OUTFMT option uses the primary report file (usually SYSPRINT) as input. The primary report file must be DASD-resident when the OUTFMT option is specified. When the user requests CSV conversion, the output file is JCKCSVO (CSV output file) and JCKCSVC is the CSV configuration file. When the user requests PDF conversion, the output file is JCKPDFO (PDF output file) and JCKPDFC is the PDF configuration file.

The following is an example of the JCL statements required when OUTFMT(CSV PDF) is specified:

//SYSPRINT  DD  DISP=(,CATLG),SPACE=(CYL,(3,3)),DSN=CAI.REPORTS,
//              DCB=(DSORG=PS,RECFM=FBA,LRECL=133),UNIT=SYSDA
//JCKCSVC   DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=CAI.CAZ2OPTN(CONFIGCS)
//JCKCSVO   DD  DISP=(,CATLG),SPACE=(CYL,(3,3)),DSN=CAI.CSVOUT,UNIT=SYSDA
//JCKPDFC   DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=CAI.CAZ2OPTN(CONFIGPD)
//JCKPDFO   DD  DISP=(,CATLG),SPACE=(CYL,(3,3)),DSN=CAI.PDFOUT,UNIT=SYSDA
