Batch Control File Name
Mandatory.
Specify the name of the physical or logical file that is to be maintained by this batch control logic. This is file that will hold the accumulated totals from the currently selected file.
Rules
- The physical or logical file specified must exist in the repository.
- The file specified cannot contain batch control logic itself.
Tips & Techniques
- If the specified file contains batch control and causes a problem, investigate moving the batch control logic from the nominated "batch control file" to this file (the file definition currently being worked with). In most cases this technique will satisfy all batch control requirements.
