4.15.2 Defining the Utility Job Input Routine


For each utility job, you must provide SAS code to read
your file.  The input can be a SAS file or any type of OS
file that can be read with SAS.  The standard utility jobs
require you to assign values to particular variables.  Refer
to the sample input routines shipped with the standard
utility jobs for the names of these variables.  The CA MICS
Accounting and Chargeback panels use ISPF Edit to allow you
to revise the input routine for each job.  The names of the
input routine members are in the form ACTJjidI, where jid is
the job identifier.

The routine must be a valid SAS routine with no embedded DATA
or PROC statements.

The following sections describe the input routines that
are needed to make these utility jobs functional.  If you
do not need these utilities, skip these sections.
