)REQ—Event Specifier of REQ Rules

The following is the format for coding the REQ-event definition section:

)REQ requestcode

requestcode

Specifies the request code. Follow these guidelines when specifying the character string:

• Specify 1 to 10 characters of the request code specifier.
• The string cannot contain embedded blank spaces.
• You can use the wildcard (*) character. For example,
  • CANCEL* matches CANCELJOB, CANCELUSER, and any other request code beginning with CANCEL.
  • * alone matches all request codes.
• Lowercase letters are acceptable, but the AOF converts them to uppercase for event testing.
