Introduction › Obtaining Print Attributes

Obtaining Print Attributes

When the OUTPUT=YES initialization parameter is used, CA Deliver extracts print attributes from //OUTPUT statements and dynamically creates //OUTPUT statements as necessary to produce reports. The same rules used by the operating system for overrides are followed.

CA Deliver obtains print attributes for a report from the internal representation of the DD and OUTPUT JCL statements (from the JFCB, SIOT, and SWB control blocks).
