Date
Use the fields in the Date column to enter selection dates for the current job. A
selection date specifies the day, month, and year when the bulk submit program
selects the job in a bulk submit run, selecting jobs by that date. The program does not
select the job if the inclusion flag of the date is EX (Exclude). For more information on
the flag, see Include/Exclude on page 6-7.
You can use any of these forms to enter the selection date. For more information on
date forms, see Calendar on page 6-23.

Time
Use the fields in the Time column to specify the time component of the AT or AFTER

[h]h:[m]m
[h]h
is an integer in the range 0 through 23 specifying the hour of the day.
[m]m
is an integer in the range 0 through 59 specifying the minute of the hour.
The first minute of the day is 00:00 (midnight). The last minute is 23:59.
AT Specifies the AT job attribute. This attribute causes execution of the job at the time
specified in the Time field. If an executor is not available at that time, the scheduler
creates a temporary executor to run the job. The scheduler deletes the temporary
executor when job execution finishes.
AF Specifies the AFTER job attribute. This attribute makes the job available for execution
at the time specified in the Time field.
