TERMINATE REPORT

The TERMINATE REPORT instruction cancels a report execution.

Syntax

TERMINATE REPORT report-name

report-name is the name of the report to be canceled.

Usage

TERMINATE REPORT cancels the report processing. It is typically used when the program (or the user) becomes aware that a problem prevents the report from producing part of its intended output, or when the user interrupted the report processing.

TERMINATE REPORT has the following effects:

Terminates the processing of the current report.
Deletes any intermediate files or temporary tables that were created in processing the report.

The EXIT REPORT instruction has the same effect, except that it can be used inside the report definition.
