Customizing Skip Values

The skip definitions are identified by the macros SKIP and SKIPEND.

SKIP
The skip value information. These are organized in FOP9SAPF directly after the OVERRIDE statements at the beginning of the definitions.
SKIPEND
Defines the end of a block of skipped dates.

The following describes how to modify the SKIP definitions and include specific definitions for individual formats in the member FOP9SAPF. This requires three steps:

  1. Specify the SKIP statements.
  2. Modify the OVERRIDE statement to include the desired global SKIP statement values.
  3. Add the SKIP parameter to individual FORMAT statements as required to override the global specifications.
