FDREPORT FIELD NAMES for Datasets and Volumes
The following tables list the field names that can be used to report on Volume, Catalog and Dataset data in REPORT, SORT, and SUMMARY statements as well as PUNCH masks and TITLE statements. The field name tables are listed by DATATYPE showing the fields available for the specified DATATYPE.
The following FDREPORT data sources are also available
The tables shown the following information for each field, full descriptions can be found on the FDREPORT fields page:
- Field Name
- XSEL - selection criteria
- REP - can you report on this field?
- SORT - can you report on this field?
- SUMM - Can you summarise by this field?
- PUN - Can you use this field in a punch mask?
- Leng - How long is this field?
- Attr - How is the field is displayed?
- Description - A brief description of the field
