EPI WAITTOD—Set Processing Delay Time

The EPI WAITTOD command delays processing of a REXX program or an AOF request rule until a specific time of day has been reached. Request rules are the only rules that can use this command.

EPI WAITTOD has the following format:

ADDRESS EPI "WAITTOD keyword"
{hh mm ss}
hh mm ss

Defines the wait time of day in hours (hh), minutes (mm), and seconds (ss).

Note: You must specify the time in military format (for example, 8:15:30 a.m. equals 081530 in military time). The time that you specify also must be at least one second, and not more than 24 hours, into the future.
