A Statistics Extract is created as a delimited text file for the purpose of importing CICS® statistics into PC spreadsheet or database tools for further detailed analysis and reporting.
A Recap report containing processing statistics is always printed at the end of extract processing.
To request the extract, enter line action S against the Statistics Extract on the Report Set panel. If extracts have been previously specified, the list of Statistics Extracts is displayed. Otherwise, the Statistics Extract panel is displayed for you to define your first one.

This panel displays the list of Statistics Extracts in this Report Set. You can select (edit), delete, or include/exclude any extract, insert new ones, or rearrange them (move/copy).
The options and line actions are the same as on the Cross-System Work Extracts panel (see Cross-System Work extract), except that there are no selection criteria, and that, here, you specify a prefix for the output data set name, rather than the complete name.

Use this panel to specify extract options and interval types for the Statistics extract. The mandatory options are the prefix and disposition of the Extract data set, the DDname for the Recap report, and the selection of statistics reports that you want to extract. You can let the other options default.
The format of each extract depends on the statistics reports that you select.
The options are:
You can specify any combination of APPLID, Image, or Group, but these must be defined in your System Definitions. If you do not specify System Selection here or in the Global Options, then you are prompted at run time to specify the System Selection. This will apply globally to all reports and extracts without their own System Selection. This is recommended as it allows you to run your Report Sets against any of your defined Systems. Press the Prompt key (F4) to select from a list of defined Systems, Images, or Groups. To modify your System Definitions, select Systems in the action bar.
CICS PA uses the System Selection in JCL generation to build the APPLID(applid1,applid2,applid3,...) and INput(SMFIN001,SMFIN002,SMFIN003,...) operands, and corresponding //SMFINnnn DD statements.
When specifying the data set name prefix, standard TSO conventions apply.
You must specify one of these dispositions regardless of whether the output data set is cataloged. If the output data set is not cataloged when CICS PA generates the JCL, then CICS PA generates the JCL using DISP=(NEW,CATLG) to catalog it.
CICS PA JCL generation translates this to DELIMIT('delimiter'). Note that the value is enclosed in quotes in this operand.
Blank out the field if you do not want field labels written. CICS PA JCL generation translates this to the NOLABELS operand.
