Sending Output to a SPOOL DEFINE

Creating a SPOOL DEFINE

1. Enter an ADD DEFINE command to create a SPOOL DEFINE named =PAY-RUN

and to set the attributes:

2. Enter an INFO DEFINE command with the DETAIL parameter to display the

attributes and their values for =PAY-RUN.

Using a SPOOL DEFINE

1. Run the program that produces the spooler output.

In this example, the program PAYLIST prints a payroll listing from the January

payroll records. The OUT run option is set to the SPOOL DEFINE you just created.

The spooler job created by PAYLIST has the attributes specified in the SPOOL

DEFINE named =PAY-RUN.

2. To see these spooler job attributes, use Peruse:
