JCW Variable Value Definitions

[Schleicher, Randy (Windsor HQ)]

> If your system does not have a batch job monitor such as JobRescue or
> Maestro which can flag these type of warnings, you'll have to add some
> in-house logic in order to flag QUIZ report limit exceptions.  The job
> below demonstrates this.  You simply put a SIZE limit on a subfile that is
> 1 less than the report limit of the pass.  This will cause QUIZ to abort
> because the subfile will be filled before the report limit is hit.  The
> fact that QUIZ aborts will set the QUIZ JCW, so then use MPE commands to
> act accordingly.  You can easily incorporate this into QUIZ report passes
> by simply adding the subfile statement (as a temporary file) with a SIZE
> that is 1 less than the REPORT LIMIT for the pass.  Hope this helps.
