End Input (ENDINP)

The End Input (ENDINP) command is a delimiter in a batch input stream that indicates the end of the input data. The End Input (ENDINP) command also can indicate the end of an inline data file provided the command is detected while the inline file is being processed. If the inline file is using ending characters which are not defaults (//) the End Input (ENDINP) command is embedded without being recognized.

Restrictions: This command cannot be entered at a work station. Two slashes (//) in positions 1 and 2 must go before the End Input (ENDINP) command in the data record, for example //ENDINP. Blanks can separate the slashes from the command line (// ENDINP).

There are no parameters for this command.
