Report Set JCL generation

At Report Set run time, CICS PA generates the required batch JCL, bringing together information from the following sources within the CICS PA dialog:
  1. Report Set. The Report Set specifies the reports you want to run and their options.
  2. Report Forms. When a report requests a Report Form, CICS PA looks for them in the Report Forms data set and constructs the applicable FIELDS, BY, and LIMIT report operands.
  3. Object Lists. When a report specifies Selection Criteria, Object Lists can be used to identify a predefined list of object names. For example, Transaction IDs that belong to a particular application. CICS PA looks for them in the Object Lists data set and constructs the applicable SELECT report operands.
  4. System Definitions. The System Definitions define the systems that can be reported and their associated SMF files. At run time or inside your Report Set, you must specify System Selection, that is, the systems to be reported. CICS PA matches the System Selection to your System Definitions. The following section describes how CICS PA interprets your System Selection and uses the System Definitions to satisfy your report request.
