Keyword Usage
ALIAS

Set to the same value (Y, N, or NULL) as the ALIAS keyword. CA‑PanAPT does this through the keyword assignment statement in the Retrieve Model specifications in the associated Library Code. The $FROMDATA value can be used to override the ALIAS value.

$MEMBERCOUNT

Set to the current Retrieve request model execution count for the purpose of generating unique JCL field names such as STEP names. The character value ranges from 0000000 through 9999999 and is incremented by 1 for each member.

$CHKREP

Set to the same value (Y or N) as the Replace Member field on the Retrieve Processing Options panel. A value of Y indicates that the copied member can replace an existing member of the same name ($TONAME) in the target library ($DEST1DSN).

$ORIGDSN

Set to the data set name that the member is being Retrieved from, as defined to the Library Code.

$DEST1DSN

Set to the target library data set name.

$FROMNAME

Set to the same value as the From Member field of the Retrieve Processing Options panel. The $FROMNAME value is used on the PFF SELECT command statement to request the source library member.

$FROMDATA

Set to the same value as the From Data field on the Retrieve Processing Options panel. If the $FROMDATA value is specified, the value is used to override the ALIAS value specified in the Retrieve Model specifications. See ALIAS for valid values to use in the From Data field.

$TONAME

Set to the same value as the To Member field of the Retrieve Processing Options panel. You can modify the To Member field to rename the source member. The $TONAME value is used on the PFF SELECT APPLY NEWNAME command statement to request the name of the member on the target library.
