Prepare Analysis Reports Procedures

To print analysis reports, perform the following procedures. Requests can be made to print all or selected analysis reports. Analysis reports may be printed in a 132- or a 198-character-wide format depending on entries made in category 025.

Select Function

1. Enter the Analysis Reports financial reporting option on the GLMENU to display the Analysis Report Request Screen (GL550S01).

Select All Reports

2. Enter the number of copies of the analysis reports to be printed. The submit code determines when the analysis reports are printed. When you set the submit code to Y and press the ENTER key, a job is submitted to perform the print processing for each report. The message Report request submitted is displayed and the request screen is redisplayed. The print job will be held for later processing. (See the Releasing Submitted Jobs topic in the Procedures section for more information regarding job scheduling.)

When you set the submit code to N and press the ENTER key, print processing is performed interactively. As each report is processed, the message Report (report number) print in progress is displayed. The message Print request completed is displayed when all print processing is completed.

When a large number of reports are printed interactively, the terminal from which the print request is entered may not be available for an extended period of time. Also, interactive computer resources may be unduly taxed by this processing.

When all report requests are processed, end the session. (See step 5, "End Session.")

Select Processing for Selected Reports

3. Enter how many copies of analysis reports to be printed for each report.

You can use the roll keys to page forward (Rollup) and backward (Rolldown) through the reports. You can modify the displayed roll factor to scroll any number of lines with each roll operation. The roll factor is initially set to 8. Note that if you set the roll factor larger than eight, the number of reports that can be displayed on the screen, only the last eight reports will be displayed after each roll operation.

The submit code determines when the analysis reports are printed. When you set the submit code to Y and press the ENTER key, a job is submitted to perform the print processing for each report. The message Report request submitted is displayed and the request screen is redisplayed. The print job is held for later processing. (See the Releasing Submitted Jobs topic in the Procedures section for more information on job scheduling.)

When all report requests are processed, end the session. (See step 5, "End Session.")

Cancel Request

4. To cancel print requests before you submit the job, press F3-Exit. All selected reports are canceled and the GLMENU is redisplayed.
