FUNCTION

Processing function

The data values are:

2

No

 

Blank

Adds or changes bundle definitions; this is the default function

 

 

 

D

Deletes the bundle definition; only the BID parameter is used

 

 

 

DD

Deletes all distribution specifications, a series of distribution entries, or an individual distribution entry

See the topic Using Combinations of DENTNO, DRELNO, DISTID, and ODISTID Parameters later in this section.

 

 

 

DI

Deletes all special instructions or an individual special instruction entry

See the topic Using the IENTNO Parameter later in this section.

 

 

 

DR

Deletes all report identifiers, a series of report identifiers, or an individual report identifier

See the topic Using Combinations of RENTNO, RRELNO, ORID, and RID Parameters later in this section.

 

 

 

R

Specify the original and new bundle identifiers, respectively.

 

 

 

SD

Sorts the distribution specifications for the bundle in ascending sequence

 

 

 

SR

Sorts the report specifications for the bundle in ascending sequence

 

 

 

U

Updates bundle definition, bundle report identifiers, bundle distribution identifiers, or bundle special instructions

The data value identifies the distribution identifier that is to be updated (function U), deleted (function DD), or after which an entry is to be inserted (function blank).

See the topic Using Combinations of DENTNO, DRELNO, DISTID, and ODISTID Parameters later in this section.

32

No

ORID

Original report identifier

The data value identifies the report identifier that is to be updated (function U), deleted (function DR), or after which an entry is to be inserted (function blank).
