The Global Options define general control information applying to all reports and extracts in the Report Set. They specify the global System Selection (CICS® System, DB2® Subsystem, MQ Subsystem, MVS™ System Logger) and report formatting options (lines per page, time zone, date/time delimiters).
You can accept the default formatting options or change them to suit your requirements. System Selection can be left blank, provided the systems are specified at the report-level, or when the Report Set is submitted.
If the required system is not defined to CICS PA, you can link directly to System Definitions to define it by selecting Systems in the action bar or entering the SYSDEFS command.
Each point of selection is optional, but at least one must be specified before CICS PA can proceed with JCL generation. You could choose not to specify any System Selections in your Report Set. Then at run time, you are prompted to specify the systems you wish to report against.
CICS PA generates the APPLID(applid1,applid2,applid3,...) and INput(SMFIN001,SMFIN002,SMFIN003,...) operands, and corresponding //SMFINnnn DD statements.
CICS PA generates the SSID(ssid1,ssid2,ssid3,...) operands for the DB2 or RECSEL commands and the DD statements for the associated files.
CICS PA generates the operand SSID(ssid1,ssid2,ssid3,...) operands for the MQ or RECSEL commands and the DD statements for the associated files.
CICS PA generates the DD statements for the associated files.
The global value applies to all reports. (It is not applicable to extracts.) If a value is specified on the report panel, the report value takes precedence over the global for that report only.

CMF, DB2, MQ, and Logger records have clock fields in STCK format based on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). Every CMF record includes time zone conversion factors SMFMNLSO (Leap Second Offset) and SMFMNDTO (Date/Time Offset). CICS PA uses these to convert the time stamps to reflect the local time of the SMF data.
DB2, MQ, and System Logger records, however, do not have time zone conversion factors. CICS PA uses the reporting system's time zone obtained from the conversion factors CVTLSO (Leap Second Offset) and CVTLDTO (Date/Time Offset) in the CVT. When you run the DB2, MQ, or Logger report on a system with a different time zone setting to that of the SMF data, then you must specify the time zone option to match that of the SMF data. The time zone specification is used to convert the CMF, DB2, MQ, and Logger time stamps to reflect the local time of the SMF data.
Specify the time zone as an integer from -12 to +12 to represent the number of hours that local time is west or east of GMT. For example, specify -5 for New York, 10 for Sydney. CICS PA will then convert GMT STCK values to the required local time for all record types.
The default is blank (not specified).
