Allowable combinations of values on the sample application panels

The codes on the sample application panels cannot be combined indiscriminately.

For instance, manager number (MI) is a valid search criterion for a department (DE), but employee number (EI) and project number (PI) cannot be used to locate a department.

You can retrieve data by having the panels prompt you for the proper values. It is not necessary to enter the values one line at a time. If you already know all the values you want, they can be entered at the same time. If the values are only partially entered, you must start with ACTION and enter each value in sequence, not skipping over any values. For example, if you know all the values except OBJECT, only ACTION can be entered. You are prompted for OBJECT. Then you can enter OBJECT, SEARCH CRITERIA, and DATA.
