6.5.2.2.1 Unit Level Journal Report

The Journal Files Rate Report is a listing of the journal
file charging algorithms (that is, the computation codes and
their associated rates) in a unit.  For each journal file,
the report lists the applicable rate for each charging
element by system identifier, subsystem, subtype, and cost
center.  This report is designed to document each charging
element and its associated rate for user reference.  The
report can be used to verify rates prior to running the
MAGRUN job, which executes Rate and Charging Element
generation.

To avoid charging twice for the same resource, additional
report will be generated at the end of the Current Rate
Report when the same charging element is used in multiple
computation codes.  This report lists the journal file name,
computation codes, and the charging elements that are used in
multiple computation codes.

If you have changed any rates, but not yet run the MAGRUN
job, the Journal Files Rate Report produces two separate
reports:

  - CURRENTLY EFFECTIVE RATES
  - PROPOSED RATES

Once you have verified the accuracy of the proposed rates,
and executed the MAGRUN job, the Journal Files Rate Report
only produces one report:

  - CURRENTLY EFFECTIVE RATES

It is recommended that MAGRUN job be executed once rates have
been verified to ensure generation of the supporting code.
Remember that even though proposed rates have been entered,
the daily update runs will not use them until the MAGRUN job
is successfully executed!


Figure 6-30 shows a sample Journal Files Rate Report.

The report heading contains the installation name, the report
name (for example, CURRENTLY EFFECTIVE RATES), and the date
on which the report was run.  This example report also show
that there were charging elements used in multiple comp
codes, and the report lists the journal file name, comp
codes, and the charging elements that are used in multiple
comp codes.

RUNNING THE REPORT

The Journal File Rate Report (CURRENTLY EFFECTIVE RATES) is
produced automatically whenever you run the Algorithm
Generator job in prefix.MICS.CNTL(MAGRUN).  You can also run
the report from the Journal Files Rate Report option of the
Accounting Administration Rate Tracking menu
(MWF;4;2;4;5;2;2).  The JCL for this report is in the
prefix.MICS.CNTL(RATERPT) member.
