Deactivate the Receiver ID

The &PPI DEACTIVATE option allows an NCL process to disconnect itself from a defined PPI receiver ID. Optionally, a queue limit can be specified, allowing data to be queued even though no receiver is present. The ID can be reactivated later, by this or any other NCL process.

If an NCL process that is defined to PPI terminates, an automatic deactivation occurs.
