Example 2: Defining Accounting Sources Using a Lookup Table

In this example, we are telling CA PMA Chargeback to:

• Create a field called DIVISION for the MBJ (Batch Job) ORD
• Its sources should be:
  • The first four characters of the JOBNAME, concatenated with
  • The first eight characters of the ACCTCODE field, concatenated with
  • The first four characters of the USER-INFO field

    
                         |----- DIVISION Length (16) ----|
                         ▼A B C D 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 X Y Z 1▼
                         |-------|---------------|-------|
                         |1 2 3 4|1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8|1 2 3 4|
                         -JOBNAME-----ACCTCODE-----USER---
                                                   INFO
    

• Create a Lookup Table named DIVTAB

  USERID                  CA PMA Chargeback                   MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS
