Job run and *JOBRUN are resolved to the sort sequence (SRTSEQ keyword) and language ID (LANGID keyword) from the user’s job when the query is run. These are the defaults for collating sequence option 5 if no sort sequence and language ID are saved in the query user profile.

The language ID is not used when:

vYou choose Job run as the sort sequence option, and

vThe sort sequence of the job at run time is *HEX or a named translation table.

Unique means that each character has a unique weight. Shared means that some characters share the same weight. For example, in the shared sequence for English, uppercase and lowercase pairs of letters share the same weight.

Note: If a translation table or sort sequence you selected via option 4 or 5 changes, the changed version becomes the one used for your query the next time you change or display the query. The changed table is also used if you deferred selection until run time. If you want a specific translation table or sort sequence permanently associated with your query you must use option 3 on the Select Collating Sequence display. Set the SRTSEQ parameter for your job to the desired table then start a Query for iSeries session to create or change your query, use option 3 to set the Define Collating Sequence display, and press F17. You can use F23 to permanently associate the table with all new queries you create.
