Selecting and Retrieving Reports

Selecting and Retrieving Reports

Administrators can select and retrieve reports using each of the user modes: ALL, SAR, SARO, EXP, EXPO, and JOB.

For all modes, begin by entering selection criteria on the primary selection panel. Next, proceed as follow:

• For JOB mode, a panel presents the jobs that match the criteria. Select a job to display its log and output.

  Note: The following sections about output selection lists, sorting, and filtering do not apply to JOB mode.

• For modes other than JOB, use the panels that follow to select and retrieve one archived SYSOUT group or report. You can print or view the output.

For modes other than JOB, the following process illustrates the general flow and options:

1. Primary Selection Panel
2. Output Selection List
3. One or more of the following options:
   • Delete output
   • Invoke cleanup process
   • Load output from disk to tape
   • View output
   • Email output
   • Print output
   • Keep output in permanent status on disk or tape
   • Take output out of permanent status
