How to Use Job Control Standards › Deleting Action Rules from a Standard

Deleting Action Rules from a Standard

To delete a standards rule, you can delete the action for the rule, and the rule; or, if the action for the rule is used by more than one parameter, you can leave the action and simply delete the rule.

1. Access the STANDARD (SELECTION) panel (CAZ1RPSP), Creating the Standard Name, and enter E in the OPTION field.
2. Do one of the following:
   • Enter a standard name in the Standard Group Name field, and press Enter.
   • At the Standard Directory panel, enter E in the CMD field preceding the standard name, and press Enter.

   When the confirmation is complete you are returned to the Standards Definition panel, which displays the message, "STANDARD UPDATED."
