AXQMSGOV

The AXQMSGOV member is used to override the issuance of most WTO messages and the associated condition codes, or the WTO routing and descriptor codes, or both the messages and the routing and descriptor codes.

Format records have this general layout:

  • The first field is the message ID.

  • The second field is the condition code for the message.

  • The third field is the suppression indicator.

  • The fourth field is for the routing codes.

  • The fifth field is for descriptor codes.

These are the statement coding rules:

  • An asterisk (*) in column 1 indicates a comment.

  • You may list only one message ID per line.

  • Fields are delimited by blanks and can begin anywhere.

  • The first three fields are required. The fourth and fifth fields are optional.

  • The message ID must be 1–8 characters in length, including wildcards. Only the first eight characters of the message ID are matched. The first entry that matches the message ID is used.

  • The condition code must be a decimal value in the range 0 – 4095 or an asterisk (*), which indicates no override. For a message that is suppressed, an asterisk is the same as specifying 0. The condition code is set regardless of the suppression indicator.

  • The suppression indicator must be one of these values:
    • Y|YES, indicating that the message is to be suppressed.
    • N|NO, indicating that the message is not to be suppressed.

  • Entries for a message that result in an immediate abend are ignored.

  • Routing codes are optional. If a routing code is specified, it must be one of these values:
    • *, indicating no override.
    • A list of comma-separated routing codes in the range 1 - 16.
  • Descriptor codes are optional. If a descriptor code is specified, it must one of these values:
    • *, indicating no override.
    • a list of comma-separated descriptor codes in the range 1 - 16.

  • The routing and descriptor code fields are ignored when the suppression indicator is Y or YES.
