Option Definition

nnumber.

The NTO1 threshold, which specifies the maximum number of pages a report may have in order for it to be printed n to 1. If the threshold count is exceeded before the end of the report, the system prints the entire report 1 to n.

The default value of n is 50 physical sheets, but n may range from 1 to 32767. When a value is greater than 100, the system generates a warning message.

Default NO

OUTPUT NTO1 The NTO1 parameter interacts with some of the other OUTPUT parameter: points command parameters. These interactions can cause some of

to note the specifications in the JSL to be overridden. In other cases, you must follow special procedures when specifying the interacting parameters in your JSL, in order to produce the results you want.

•N to 1 printing takes longer to process than 1 to n printing because the system must process the entire report before beginning to print the job.

•NTO1 and COLLATE: When NTO1=YES, PDL overrides COLLATE=NO with COLLATE=YES, and notes this action with a warning in the JSL listing.

•NTO1 and FACEUP: NTO1=YES causes FACEUP=YES to be specified.

•NTO1 and 1TON: The system assumes each report is NTO1 until the first data page, even if 1TON is specified in the JDE or JDL. This arrangement allows you to use JDEs and JDLs that are selected by DJDEs and invoke NTO1 after a series of banner pages.

The following examples illustrate these conditions:

Example 1:

OUTPUT NTO1= NO is specified.

The job prints 1TON unless a JDE or JDL DJDE specifying NTO1 is invoked in the first data record after banner pages.

Example 2:

OUTPUT NTO1= YES is specified, and a JDE or JDL DJDE specifying NTO1= NO is invoked.

The DJDE is processed and the job prints 1TON if the system encounters it in the first data record after banner pages.
