RAAD Print Fact Sheet Report Archive and Distribution (RAAD) is a comprehensive report distribution and control system that provides a wide array of features, allowing you to manage and control your spooling environment. RAAD is an online application that runs under CICS. You can customize RAAD and its components online through easy-to-use 3270 screens. User-written CICS application programs can spool reports to RAAD’s internal queue (SPL) or to any POWER queue. RAAD can automatically insert report head and/or feet that have been defined by your application program. RAAD contains a special PC program that enables you to easily download mainframe reports to your PC using virtually any 3270 emulator on your PC. Conversion Info RAAD Downloads & Documentation Features • Accessing spooled reports from: --The POWER Reader (RDR), Punch (PUN), List (LST) or Transmit (XMT) queues --The VM reader (VMR), Punch (VMP) List (VML) queues --From an existing CSI-ARCHIVE dataset (ARC) • An online spooling facility that you can use to submit batch jobs for file backups or other purposes • Archiving reports automatically, using the POWER External Device Writer support. This requires a minimum of JCL and/or procedural change for your installation. • Archiving POWER LST queue output from any program • Storing reports in a DASD efficient manner, meaning that the reports are compressed to conserve disk space • Retaining on the Archive Dataset according to user-defined criteria. Any combination of the following can be used: --Number of days --Number of generations --Specific retain-to date --Periodically scanning your spooler queues. As reports are encountered during the scan, they can be archived, printed to any system-attached printer, or used as a trigger to cause JCL to be submitted to the POWER RDR queue. • Selecting reports based on several fields maintained by operating system spoolers; some of these are: --Job name --Class --Disposition --Priority --Remote ID • Origin and Destination Node • POWER user information from the LST card • Viewing reports online or printing to any network-attached printer • Viewing the output of executing VSE jobs while they are being generated • Providing extensive data-search capabilities • Viewing reports in character or hexadecimal format • Report viewing for all 3270 models • Reformatting reports by column when viewed and/or printed--this feature can prevent unauthorized users from having access to privileged data. • Managing spooler queues from an easy-to-use 3270 application program • Supporting all printers attached to CICS, and TCP/IP printers (LPD) if you are running TCP/IP for VSE • Providing access to reports and to RAAD functions by individual users with RAAD User Profiles • Preventing or allowing access to spooler queues by report details such as job name, class, origin and destination top Conversion Info: RAAD Replaces: CA-Deliver Output Management for VSE CA-RAPS CA-Express Delivery INFOPAC top
