Browse Command

The browse command (B) can be used to view report request commands in your personal library or the common library.  This command is especially useful for viewing report requests in the common library because changes cannot be made while browsing.     

 

To browse report request commands, type a 'B' to the left of the report request name and press enter.  For example:  

 

                       CIRS PERSONAL LIBRARY                 

Cmds     B Browse  C Copy     D Delete        E Edit    Row 1 of 17

         P Print   R Rename   S Submit Batch  O Online Execution

Cmd  Name     Description                                 Changed  

 _  AAREPORT  ANNUAL AFFIRMATIVE ACTION REPORT          2003/05/23

 _  EMPHIST   EMPLOYMENT HISTORY REPORT                 2003/05/28

 B  EMPLIST   EMPLOYEE LIST - RUN QUARTERLY             2003/05/23

 _  FACULTY   FACULTY STATS                             2003/05/14

 

The report request will be displayed in browse mode.  Note:  If sequence numbers display on the right side of the screen, they may cause problems when the request is executed.  You should remove them by editing the report and typing NUMBER ON at the command line and pressing enter.  Then, type UNNUMBER at the command line and press enter.  Contact the CIRS Hotline if you require assistance.
