Browsing the resolution interval of mandatory pending predecessors
For operations in waiting status for mandatory pending predecessors you can view the time interval within which the input arrival time of the predecessor must fall for the dependency to be resolved, as well as the resolution criterion specified for that dependency.
This information can be viewed in both ISPF and the Dynamic Workload Console.
In ISPF, starting from choice 5 (Modify the current plan) or 6
(Query the current plan), selecting 3 (Operations) to display the
Selecting Operations (EQQSOPFP) panel, and entering the appropriate
selection criteria, acquire a list of operations in
waiting
status
for mandatory pending predecessors.- If you are viewing the basic style panels:
- Enter B in the
Row cmd
column next to the operation you want to view if you started with option 5.3, or enter S if you started with option 6.3. This action displays the Predecessors and successors to an operation (EQQSPP1L) panel. - Press F11 twice to scroll to the extreme right of the panel (EQQSPP3L).
