Understanding Macros

A macro is an NCL procedure used to construct process steps. Sample macros are provided, but you can also write your own NCL procedures and use them as macros. Your NCL procedure must be manually distributed to linked regions. To enable the system to recognize an NCL procedure as a macro, you must register the macro.

Note: For more information about using macros, see the User Guide.
