E.2.2.1 Data Entry Instructions


The Browse/Print Options parameters control the information
to be included when browsing or printing product change
entries.  Default values follow the parameter descriptions.

Print individual PC text or consolidated checklist -
     Required.  TEXT or CKLIST.

     Specify TEXT (may be abbreviated as T) to print the
     individual product change description, installation
     checklist, and associated installation JCL for each
     product change you have selected.

     Specify CKLIST (may be abbreviated as C) to print a
     consolidated installation checklist for all of the
     product changes you have selected.  The consolidated
     checklist is generated by combining individual
     checklists delivered with each product change.
     Redundant and duplicate steps found across checklists
     are removed during the consolidation process.

Use composite UNITGEN in consolidated checklist - Required if
     Print parameter is CKLIST, ignored if Print parameter is
     TEXT.  YES or NO.

     Specify Y (YES) to generate a consolidated checklist for
     the selected product changes using the composite UNITGEN
     process for unit-level JCL and parameter generation.

     Note: This item may be locked until an active
     maintenance process is finished by completing a previous
     checklist.

     Specify N (NO) to generate a consolidated checklist for
     the selected product changes using the individual CA
     MICS generation jobs (for example, cccPGEN, JCLGENC,
     CYCLEGEN, GDGSGEN) for unit-level JCL and parameter
     generation.

     This parameter is valid only when you specify CKLIST
     for the Print parameter above.

     Note: If you get an error message because this item is
     locked, complete the active composite UNITGEN process
     before trying again. There is also a forced unlock
     option available in the PSP Utilities panel, option 4.
     We do not recommend that you use this option unless it
     is impossible to complete the active composite UNITGEN
     process.

Print summary of changed libraries/members -
     Required.  YES or NO.

     Specify YES (may be abbreviated as Y) to print a
     list of the libraries or members that have changed.

 Print product change appendix -
      Required.  YES or NO.
 
      Specify YES (may be abbreviated as Y) to print the
      product change appendix with details about data element
      changes, if there are any, in the consolidated
      checklist.

During Select Product Change processing -
     These parameters apply to the Select Product Change
     panels of the Problem Analysis and Apply Product Change
     processes.  Print parameter defaults to CKLIST and Use
     composite UNITGEN parameter defaults to YES.

During PSP Appendix A processing -
     These parameters apply to the New Product Change
     Abstracts and the All Product Change Abstracts To-Date
     options of the Problem Analysis process.  Print
     parameter defaults to TEXT and Use composite UNITGEN
     parameter defaults to YES.

During Print Check List processing -
     These parameters apply to the Print Product Change Check
     List process within the Problem Analysis and Apply
     Product Change processes.  Print parameter defaults to
     TEXT and Use composite UNITGEN parameter defaults to
     YES.

Edit Print JCL - Required.  Defaults to YES.  Specify YES
     (may be abbreviated as Y) to display generated batch
     print job streams using the PDF EDIT service prior to
     executing these job streams.  Specify NO (may be
     abbreviated as N) to bypass the generated batch job
     stream display.
