If GROUP is specified and the data record contains a nonblank value for GROUP, then the distribution identifier is added to the end of the last group. If the data record contains a blank value for DISTID, no distribution specification is added for the record.

DEST is only added to the definition, if specified, for the first distribution identifier for a group.

If DTYPE=R is specified during a delete (DD), only dynamic report ids that match the DISTID are deleted.

If DTYPE=D is specified during a delete (DD), only dynamic distribution names that match the DISTID are deleted.

If you use DTYPE of R to delete a REPT type distribution entry, both the REPT and all associated DIST entries are deleted.
