Saving and recalling selections
The SAVE command saves all report set, reporting command, and ddname selections and specifications that you have made so far into a partitioned data set.
About this task
You can also save incomplete selections and use these selections
as a template for a specific type of report. The SAVE command displays the
Save Selections panel, where you can specify the data set and member name
in which selections are to be saved. This data set must exist and must be
defined with the following attributes:
- RECFM
- FB
- LRECL
- 80
- BLKSIZE
- 6160
- Directory blocks
- Depends on how many members you want to save.
The next time you want to produce the same or a similar
command stream, type RECALL on the command line of one of
the IRF panels. The RECALL command displays the Recall
Selections panel, where you can specify the data set and member in which the
previous selections have been saved. At this time, you can still modify or
complete the recalled selections according to your needs. If you want to use
the recalled selections unchanged, enter COMPOSE on the command
line to generate the JCL and the command stream.
