Differential Severity Scale

The Differential Severity Scale provides a graphic breakdown, on reports SASSHR04 and SASSHR05, of the difference between scheduled and actual start and completion times for jobs and workstations. The scale consists of 80-character statements assembled and link edited as SASSDSxx, where xx is a unique, 2-character ID other than CR. The scale has 13 levels that rate actual compared to scheduled times from the earliest to the latest.

Following is the Differential Severity Scale in the CA WA CA 7 Edition default module, SASSDS. See member AL2UM31 in CAL2OPTN for a sample SMP/E update of SASSDS.

Statements 3 through 15 contain the scale. The character definition represents the number of hours and minutes early or late, in the following format:

C'shhhmm'
s

Indicates the sign, either early (-) or late (+).

hhh

Indicates the number of hours either early or late.

mm

Indicates the number of minutes either early or late.

Values for all levels are not required. Zeros in the s, hhh, and mm fields are required to omit a level.
