Defining an installation-wide exit routine for RECEIVE processing

You can define an installation-wide exit routine that examines each MCS (including comments and text) as it is read in from the SMPPTFIN data set. The exit routine is activated after the first record is read from SMPPTFIN, and is deactivated when RECEIVE processing stops. The RECEIVE exit routine can do any of these tasks:
  • Change the input record
  • Skip the input record
  • Insert a record
  • Stop RECEIVE processing for the current SYSMOD
  • Stop RECEIVE processing
  • Stop SMP/E processing

For more information about coding this exit routine, see z/OS SMP/E Reference.
