RE: S/36 RPG Indicator confusion

Good old Level Breaks.  First is your primary file sorted by year?  If yes,
remember that one a level break indicator is set on, so is all with a lower
numbers.  Therefore L2 will set on L1, L8 will set on L7,L6,L5,L4,L3,L2,L1
regardless of weather the data changed for the lower level breaks or not.
Remember the level breaks are opposite of the sort.

Sort field 1 = level break 8
Sort field 2 = level break 7
.
.
Sort field 8 = level break 1

Subject: S/36 RPG Indicator confusion


I am modifying a S/36 RPG aging program, and someone in
accounting wanted subtotals by year.  So, I added another indicator,
but now the total by year is fireing every cycle.

0020.00      IARFILE  NS  13  30 CN  31 CM
0021.00      I                                        1   2 ARCOMPL8
0022.00      I                                        3   7 ARCUSTL3
0026.00      I                                       19  270ARINV#L2
is how it was, I just modified the line:
0078.00      I                                      216 2170ARINYYL1
by addign the L1 indicator.  (There are lots of other definitions, I just
showed the ones applicable).
