If you do not specify an ID option with the TAB command, there are no restrictions on the variables included in the command.
If you specify an ID option with the TAB command, the type of resource associated with the ID option organizes the resulting report. Accordingly, you can then use only variables that apply to that type of resource. For example, you cannot create reports showing transaction activity by data set, program, or transient data.
However, you can use variables of different classes within a report organized by a type of resource. A report organized by terminal, for example, can include PROGRAM or TRANSACTION variables (among others), because these variables apply to terminal activity.
