The default Report priority is set by the value of a field called SYSTEM-RPRIORITY. The maximum Report priority is set by the value of a field called SYSTEM-MAXRPRIORITY.

The default SYSTEM-RPRIORITY is two-thirds of the priority of the System Supervisor program (LSS). For example, LSS defaults to 50, therefore SYSTEM-RPRIORITY defaults to 33.

The default SYSTEM-RPRIORITY and SYSTEM-MAXRPRIORITY values can be altered by using the :RPR Administration command.

Priority of Reports Initiated by :RUN

All Reports initiated by a :RUN Administration command runs with the priority value contained in SYSTEM-RPRIORITY.

Priority of Reports Initiated by Run Logic Command

You can set the priority of Reports that you initiate with the Run logic command by moved a value in the range 00 through 99 to the built-in attribute Glb.Priority (00 means the Report runs at the default priority).

The value entered in Glb.Priority is limited to the maximum defined in SYSTEM-MAXRPRIORITY. The value of Glb.Priority overrides the SYSTEM-RPRIORITY setting.

Priority of Reports Initiated with RIP

If your Report is run through RIP, then it is run at the priority of the RIP program, regardless of the value of SYSTEM-RPRIORITY, but limited by SYSTEM-MAXRPRIORITY.
