To display, enter:

5 as the FUNCTION on the QM panel.
QM.5 as the FUNCTION on any other menu or formatted panel.
QM.5 as a top line command.
QJCL as a top line command.
E for a job on the QM.1 panel.
If an error is encountered with a top line QJCL command, this panel is returned for ease of correction and reentry.

To exit:

Position the cursor to the top line and enter a CA WA CA 7 Edition command.
Provide the name of some other panel in the FUNCTION field.
Use a PF key.

If this panel was displayed as a result of entering an E on the QM.1 panel, return is to that panel after any updates are done.

This panel contains the following fields:

FUNCTION

Indicates the activity to be performed. Must be one of the following:

APPEND: Attaches request queue JCL or PARM statements to the end of any existing lines in the terminal's active area.
APPENDP: Attaches prior-run queue JCL statements to the end of any existing lines in the terminal's active area. This function is not valid with cross-platform jobs.
CLEAR: Clears the panel input data fields and the terminal's active area.
EDIT: Transfers the user to the edit facility and allows text processing. If editing a CA7TOUNI or cross-platform job, we recommend the FE function to ensure a mixed case editing environment.
FE: Combination of FETCH and EDIT. If job name or job number is entered with the top line QJCL command, the FE function is assumed.
FETCH: Retrieves request queue JCL or parameter statements into the terminal's active area. If editing a CA7TOUNI or cross-platform job, we recommend the FE function to ensure a mixed case editing environment.
FETCHP: Retrieves prior-run queue JCL statements into the terminal's active area. This function is not valid with cross-platform jobs.
FPE: Combination of FETCHP and EDIT.
REPL: Replaces the JCL or parameter statements in the request queue and turns off the JCL override requirement if one exists. This decrements the master requirement count by one.
SAVE: Saves the JCL or parameter statements in the request queue and does not turn off the JCL override requirement if one exists.

JOB

If the user is doing a FETCH, APPEND, REPL or SAVE for JCL in the request queue, this can be the assigned CA 7 job number, or the job name of the job in the request queue. If the user is doing a FETCHP, FPE, or APPENDP for JCL in the prior-run queue, this must be a specific job name in up to eight characters.

Reminder text can be fetched or replaced by using RMD#nnnn in the JOB field, where nnnn is the CA WA CA 7 Edition preprocess queue job number.

ACTIVE SIZE

A system generated field that displays how many lines of text exist in the active area for the current terminal session.
