File Selection | Submission Message | Batch Output
To submit a batch job from either library, type a 'S' at the command line to the left of the report request name (e.g., EMPLIST) 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 s EMPLIST EMPLOYEE LIST - RUN QUARTERLY 2003/05/23 FACULTY FACULTY STATS 2003/05/14 |
Note: Multiple reports can be selected for batch submission at the same time IF they are all routed to a printer OR have distinct output locations (i.e., hold files).
The next screen you receive will depend on whether you have the file confirmation panel turned on or off. For more information, refer to the topic: Set FOCUS File Confirmation Panel On/Off.
If the file confirmation panel is turned off, the system will determine the file(s) needed for execution and display a submission message (see below). The output will be routed to your batch file and you will not have the option of sending the output directly to a printer.
If the file confirmation panel is turned on, you will receive a file selection menu with the required file(s) selected and the output directed to your report file. Confirm the selections and press enter to submit the job, or F3 to cancel.

By default, the output is directed to your report file. Any data from a prior batch job will be erased. Do not submit another batch job until the first one has completed and you have finished using the output.
To route the output directly to a printer, select option 2 before pressing the enter key. Note: If the output is directed to the printer, system cost information will not be printed as part of the output, and you will not be able to edit or download the batch results. Therefore it is important that this option is used for tested report requests only.
Hold files, cross-referenced files and other 'hidden' files that are not listed on the file selection menu will be automatically allocated when any other file listed on the file selection menu is selected.
If the PH file is selected, you will be prompted to select either the prior business month or to specify a fiscal year.
If the AN or SAN file is selected, you will be prompted to select the year.
When a report request is executed in batch, a submission message will display either at the bottom of the screen or on a blank screen. For example:
|
JOB CTBuserid (JOB12345) SUBMITTED *** |
The job number will be needed to check status messages. For more information, refer to the topic, Status Messages. After noting the job number, press the enter key to clear the message and return to the main menu.
If the output was routed to a printer, the results will be automatically sent to the selected printer when the job has completed.
If the output was routed to your batch report file, press the F10 key from the main menu after the job completed to view the batch results. The batch report file will contain the approximate system cost, all FOCUS commands executed and, if there were no errors, the report generated.
