This function is used to split a spooled file into several separate spool files which can be processed independently.

A Split definition must exist before this function can be selected. See Split definitions on page 173 for more information.

M WARNING M

Make sure, that you are not creating a loop in Auto Forms Control when you insert a

split definition. If you e.g. create new spooled files with a split definition and these new

spooled files are placed back on the same outq, then the new spooled file should NOT be able to trigger the split definition again...

Finishing Definition

Name:The Finishing definition name. Use F4 to select from a list.

Output queue/

library:Output from the pre-process will be a new SCS spool entry. If a default queue has been defined, the keyword *DEFAULT will be preset for this field. This is overwritten when entering a queue and a library here. *INPUT in this field Indicates that the new spool entry must be written to the same output queue where the input spool entry exists.

As the new spooled file afterwards will be input to a merge operation, *INPUT will often be appropriate. Note that the keyword *DEFAULT and *INPUT apply to both Output queue and library.
