Character fields
Up to eight character fields are allowed in the FIELDS list. The format of the command is:
- For CICS-defined fields:
CICSPA SUMMARY(FIELDS(field1,field2,...))
The CICS-defined character fields that can be selected for the Performance Summary report are listed in Fields by forms, HDB templates. Refer to the SUMMARY Report Form column and the fields with data type C in their CMF Field ID.
- For character type user fields:
CICSPA SUMMARY(FIELDS(...,CHARACTER(OWNER(owner)[,SUBSTR(offset,length)]),...))
- OWNER
- The eight-character name of the owner of the user field. This is the entry name in the DFHMCT ID= macro specification for the user field, or the CICS-assigned default name of USER.
- SUBSTR(offset,length)
- This is used to report only part of the user field, up to 8 characters from the specified offset in the field. If SUBSTR is omitted, the entire field, limited to the first eight (8) characters, is reported.
