Selection criteria list
General requirements
In many cases you will directly enter specific names for your operations.
However, there may be times when you will want to apply changes, for example,
to several users with the same privileges, or you might not know the exact name.
In such cases you can use specific criteria to select all the objects corre-
sponding to these criteria. These criteria are specified in what is called the
selection criteria list; in general these are the same options as you use with the
xpadd command when you add an object to the Xprint V7.0 system for the first
time. This option has the following format:
-scl “selection_criteria_list”.
When specifying a selection criteria list, you must observe the following:
– The entire list of criteria must be enclosed in quotes.
– By means of the selection_criteria_list, you can select, for example, all the
jobs that are to be printed on a specific date; you can display all the users
who have already printed more than 1000 pages; you can assign a new
security level to all the users with a specific security level.
– In the selection_criteria_list you can specify several criteria simultaneously.
These must be separated by blanks.
– In the selection_criteria_list you can specify almost all the options you can
use with the xpadd command (see also Xprint V7.0 V5.2A - Reference
Manual). There are, however, certain restrictions and also additional
features. These are described further below in the section “Special cases”.
– Specifying the wildcards * (any number of characters) and ? (exactly one
character) is allowed for arguments of non-numeric options.
– For options without arguments (Boolean options) you can find out whether
the relevant option was specified or not by following it with a + or - character.
– In the case of options that allow you to specify several combined values, the
selected objects are those which have at least the specified values set. To
search exclusively for the objects for which exactly the specified values are
set, follow the option with the = character.
