3.4 How to Produce Reports


The CA MICS Analyzer Option for VSE/POWER provides standard
reporting capabilities.  The content of the reports can be
tailored to match your requirements.  See Chapter 4 of this
guide for information on tailoring exception reports.

SAS macros control the appearance of management objective
reports.  To adjust the objectives for management objective
reports, use the macros contained in either the complex or
unit level #PWRMOBJ member of the SOURCE data set.

Changes made to macros at the complex level affect all units.
To limit changes to a particular unit, add the macro to the
unit level member following the %INCLUDE SOURCE(#PWRMOBJ)
statement.  The complex level member, as distributed,
contains default objective                                                                              s.

The macros provided with the Analyzer Option for VSE/POWER
are in the form of SAS macro language symbolic variable
assignments.  The following macros are available:

PWRPTR:      The objective (reference line) for the daily
             and weekly Job Initiation Reports.

PWRJSAX:     The axis limit for the daily and weekly Job
             Initiation Reports.

PWRMPTR:     The objective (reference line) for the monthly
             Job Initiation Report.

PWRMJSX:     The axis limit for the monthly Job Initiation
             Report.

PWRMREF:     The objective (reference line) for all Job
             Turnaround Reports.

PWRJMAX:     The axis limit for all Job Turnaround Reports.

PWRDLHR:     The low hour limit for all daily reports.

PWRDHHR:     The high hour limit for all daily reports.

PWRWLHR:     The low hour limit for all weekly reports.

PWRWHHR:     The high hour limit for all weekly reports.

PWRLOZN:     The low zone limit for all monthly reports.

PWRHIZN:     The high hour limit for all monthly reports.

More extensive changes to management objective reports
require modifications to the report source code.  These
changes are discussed in Chapter 10 of this guide.

The reporting strategies available through the CA MICS I/S
Management Support System are discussed in the following
