&% IPDS SETOPT;

6.3.3.2 Lead-out String

The Lead-out string below terminates the IPDS emulation set option mode. This string must always be the last line of the job. The Lead-out string is always recognized even if it occurs in the middle of an option name or value. A lead-in lead-out sequence can span several pages. Closing an IPDS session will terminate the set options mode. It is recommended that all the option changes be limited to one page.

Important: If the above string is not entered in the job containing the IPDS default option changes to end the IPDS set option mode, other jobs on the queue will not be processed correctly.
