The Control Statement Parameter List panel is displayed in response to one of the following commands:

The CMF Analyzer JCL Builder—Parameter List panel displays the control statement name, description, and available parameters. The name, format, and description of each parameter are also displayed. (Figure 1) displays a sample of a Control Statement Parameter List panel.

***************************** Bottom of data ******************************

The panel’s columns are as follows:

• Select is used to enter line commands.

• Name displays the parameter name.

• Form and Description displays the parameter’s form and description.

If the parameter is a keyword parameter, the keyword is shown in the form expression. The form of the parameter value is displayed followed by the parameter’s description. If the parameter is required, the expression '(R)' follows the description.

The format types displayed are as follows:

• <integer> means the parameter’s value must be an integer. Depending on the parameter, the integer might be a minimum value, a maximum value, a maximum length, a list of allowable values, or a default value if there is one.

• <keyword> means the parameter’s value must be a keyword from a list of valid keywords.

• <date> means the parameter’s value is specified in one of the following formats:

  The variables represent the following values:

  • dd represents the day of the month.

  • ddd represents the day of the year. Thus, if the date is February 1, the value of ddd would be 032.

  • MMM is a three-character abbreviation of the month.

  • yy represents the year. Unless the century is specified, yy is assumed to be within the range of 1950 through 2049. Thus, if the yy value is 11, the year is assumed to be 2011.

  • cc represents the century. Thus, if the cc value is 20, ccyy represents a year between 2000 and 2099.

• <time> means the parameter’s value is specified in the format hhmmss.

• <datetime> means the parameter’s value is specified in the format <date>[:<time>]. The colon is required only if a time value is specified. If the time is omitted, the time value ‘000000’ is assumed.

• <string> means the parameter’s value is a character string. If you include a space character, you must enclose the entire string in single quotation marks (‘).

• <group> means the parameter is actually a group of parameters (either all the same type, or different types). For more information, see Group Parameter panel.
