User flags
The WBU_FLAG field is a 10-character field allowing for ten general purpose user flags with these characteristics:
- The first character represents WBU_FLAG1, the second represents WBU_FLAG2, and so on.
- Only flags that are used are
required in the flag string value. For example, if five flags are required, the flag
string should be as follows:
YNNYY
- A space in one of the flag
positions indicates that processing is not required for that flag. For example, if
WBU_FLAG2 should not be processed, the flag string should be as follows:
Y NYY
- An ampersand (
&
) in one of the flag positions indicates that the flag should be empty. For example, if there should be no value in WBU_FLAG2, the flag string should be as follows:Y&NYY
Note: If there is a previous value in a flag field, the ampersand
(
&
) will remove it.
