CA Earl and CA Easytrieve Report Format Changes

This release changes the product name in the CA Earl and CA Easytrieve report headings from "CA-7" to "CA WORKLOAD AUTOMATION SE." The PAGE/REQUEST block at the right of the heading is right justified, as shown in the samples in Report Reference Guide. The title is centered on the page.

Customers who use automation tools to key off report titles can change the product name in the title back to CA-7 by applying usermod AL2UM49 (CA Earl) and AL2UM50 (CA Easytrieve). The new report title is centered. An effort was made so that if the client chooses to use the CA-7 product name in the title, the CA-7 is in the same place as it was before. However, if the previous title was off-center, as some report titles were, the CA-7 may be in a slightly different column in the rebranded version.

This release standardizes the headings on CA Earl and CA Easytrieve reports. Many of the reports were modified to conform to the location of the report date, report time, PAGE literal, page number, and report name fields on the other reports. If you are using automation to check any of these fields, review the table below to determine their current locations.

The following table shows the title row and column numbers for information that is in the CA Earl and CA Easytrieve report headings. The products have slightly different widths for their reports, so the items that are right-justified are in different columns. The table elements are in the format x/y-z, where x is title row 1 or 2, and y-z are the columns containing the information.
