This example shows how to define a parameter used in calling an application.
The following example defines a parameter OETYPE for a command to call an order entry application.
PARM KWD(OETYPE) TYPE(*CHAR) RSTD(*YES) + VALUES(DAILY WEEKLY MONTHLY) MIN(1) + PROMPT('Type of order entry:')
The OETYPE parameter is required (MIN parameter is 1) and its value is restricted (RSTD parameter is *YES) to the values DAILY, WEEKLY, or MONTHLY. The PROMPT parameter contains the prompt text for the parameter. Since no LEN keyword is specified and TYPE(*CHAR) is defined, a length of 32 is the default.
