3.3.1.1 Report Format Descriptions

The Daily Management Objective Reports are produced as a
standard process in the CA MICS Daily Job Stream. Each of the
reports is produced from the TSO System Activity File
(DAYS.TSOTSO01), maintained in the data base's DAYS time-
span.  The SAS CHART procedure is used to produce the desired
bar chart reports.

The report heading contains the installation name (e.g., XYZ
Manufacturing, Inc.), the frequency identification (e.g.,
DAILY TSO MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES), the objective being
reported (e.g., TSO SERVICE OF 85% OF ALL ACTIVITY WITHIN 15
SECONDS), and the computing system (e.g., SYSID code) on
which the TSO processing was measured.

The format of the bar chart illustrates the hour of the day
along the horizontal axis and the measurement being reported
(e.g.  service units) along the vertical axis.  The day being
reported is identified below the hours of the day, just under
the horizontal axis.

The vertical axis is used to chart the measure being
reported, and it is with this axis that the management
objective for this category is defined.  The vertical axis is
first established through the SAS CHART procedure AXIS option
which simply identifies the highest value to be represented
on the vertical axis.  The management objective is then
illustrated through the SAS CHART procedure REF option and
formatted with a dashed line across the page to illustrate
the management objective.

Consider the charting of the hourly objective for short
service.  The title describes the management objective as 95%
within 5 seconds for short activity.  The measure that is
charted is the percentage of short events satisfied within 5
seconds for each hour of the day.  Therefore, the vertical
axis would be set up for a maximum value of 100 (for 100%),
and the vertical reference line would be printed at the 95%
level.  This reference line then clearly depicts how the
objective was satisfied or missed for each hour of the day.

A special note should be made at this time to point out that
the location of the reference line on the vertical axis may
be rounded for purposes of scaling the axis.  Each vertical
line may have a unit value of 2.5%, and therefore a reference
line specification of 86% would not fall directly on a
vertical axis coordinate.  In this case, the 86% line would
be shown as a line at 85%.


The member DYTSOMBO in the sharedprefix.MICS.SOURCE library
contains the SAS statements for producing the chart reports.
The member #TSOMOBJ contains the SAS macro variables used by
DYTSOMBO.  The #TSOMOBJ member contains the specifications
for defining the objectives to be displayed and may be
modified to reflect your installation's unique management
objectives.

The remainder of this section explains and illustrates each
of the standard Daily TSO Management Objective Reports.
