Return Code Information

For MVS™ to process broadcast functions properly, you must use the following return code conventions. When a routine returns control to the SSI:

Set register 15 to 0.
Set the SSOBRETN field in the SSOB control block to one of the following:
Return Code (Decimal)

Meaning

SSWTRTOK (0)

The function routine recognized the request but did not process it.

SSWTNDSP (4)

Do not display message; hardcopy message

SSWTOKNH (8)

Display message; do not hardcopy message

SSWTNDNH (12)

Do not display message; do not hardcopy message

Note: For a multi-line WTO, the SSOBRETN field is only accepted for the first call to the function routine. The SSOBRETN field is ignored on subsequent calls to present the minor lines.
