********************************* End of list *********************************
Use this panel to specify values in a Resource List. The Resource List can then be reused many times in Selection Criteria in HDB Templates and Definitions.
Specify a description for your Resource List, up to 32 characters of text to describe its purpose. The description is initially set to Resource List.
Specify any number of values to be used in Include/Exclude statements in Selection Criteria. The values are free-format, typically names such as Transaction Codes, User IDs, and IMS™ Subsystem IDs. Masking characters are supported: % for one and only one character and * for many or none. The order of entries in the list is of no consequence to HDB processing.
Each input field is a separate value. Blank values are ignored.
It is usual to define Resource Lists that are homogenous. That is, a Resource List should specify values for testing the contents of one particular field. Define one Resource List for Transaction Codes, another for User IDs, and so on.
