Output component ID byte (Finance)

The output component identification (byte 2) contains a value from X'01' to X'04'.

This value identifies the terminal component to which this message is directed. Output component identifiers are assigned during IMS system definition, on an ETO user descriptor, or by using the Signon (DFSSGNX0) and the Output Creation (DFSINSX0) exit routines. These identifiers are specified by the sender of the message (either IMS or the message processing program).
