7.3.4 Turnaround Time Exit (TURNRTE)

While most installations' specifications for the calculation
of batch turnaround time can be met by the parameters
supported in prefix.MICS.PARMS(JOBGROUP), some sites have
special requirements.  Such sites must code a batch
turnaround time derivation routine in SAS and place it in
prefix.MICS.PARMS(TURNRTE).  This routine is executed after
CA MICS has calculated a turnaround time for the job and
placed it in data element JOBTURTM.  This exit should only
modify the JOBTURTM, SUBMITTS, and PURGETS data elements.

For DEADLINE jobs, JOBTURTM should be set to a missing value.
For such jobs, the variables that this routine should set
are SUBMITTS and PURGETS, the time the job is to be
considered as being available to the system and out of the
system, respectively.

This exit has available to it all the data elements carried
in the BATJOB file.  These elements are documented in the
CA MICS data dictionary.
