Record  identifiers  for  Account  data  are  two  characters
long.  Record  identifiers  coded as one character  long  are
padded  with  a  leading  zero.  Alphabetic characters in the
identifier must be in the same case (upper or lower)  as  the
input  data.  Currently,  all   IBM   records  use  uppercase
letters in the identifier.

To specify all Account record types, code an asterisk (*) as
the record identifier.  See Figure 3-1, Account Data
Selection Report, for the available record identifiers.

EXAMPLE: Select resource usage, device usage, and RSCS (user)
records.

    EXCLUDE *           ! drop everything
    SELECT  1 2 3       ! normal resource and device data
    SELECT  C1 C2 C3    ! batch resource and device data
    SELECT  C0          ! RSCS and all other user records
    UNKNOWN EXCLUDE     ! drop all custom records

When you use PF key 5 to create or edit the JCL from the
Account Data Parameters panel, use the following screen.
