Collection of Cover Sheets Produced by XPFC

Here's a collection of cover sheets that were created "on the fly" by XPFC.

Some were produced by the version of XPFC, whilst others were created by the version ..... but it really doesn't matter ...... what is MOST important is that XPFC allows you to design and invoke your own style cover sheets as and when YOU want ............ and at individual dataset/report level so you don't have to impose a "vanilla" approach on everyone.

Cover sheets are defined in the Configurator File (you can see what these look like elsewhere on this site if you want) and can be a combination of XPS resources (such as forms, logo's, etc) and variable system data (such as date, time, filename, USERID, Jobname, etc).

ALSO, remember that with XPFC you DON'T need to impose the same style cover sheet on the whole of your user community ..... you can invoke a particular style of cover sheet as and where YOU want it.

OK ....... here's some examples;

	This example is really nothing more than a regular MVS/JES2 Start-of-Job cover sheet but made a bit more user-friendly ..... you'll see that it still contains most of the usual system level information
	This is much the same as the previous example, except that it's the Start-of-Dataset cover sheet
	And here is an End-of-Job cover sheet that's been given similar treatment
	This is getting a bit clever ! It's where XPFC has produced a "Double Cover" with the top sheet being for the mailman, whilst the second cover sheet is aimed at the end user
	This example was REAL EASY to produce ...... if you know where the output is going, why not print the destination details on the cover sheet ?
	If you have end user departments who are a bit "hostile" towards computer output, then why not get the XPS to produce some normal looking user friendly report covers like this ?
	This example came from a UNIX system, but the theme is much the same as before ...... note the use of a big font and highlight color to make the cover more practical and office-like
	And in a similar theme ..... if there are "business critical" issues (such as the valid date for a Client Credit Listing) then exploit the XPS and just do it !
