             05  filler                                 pic 99999 value 99999.
             05  filler                                 pic x     value 'N'  .

For those HELD output classes where the output should be deleted after a SHORTER interval than the above default retain period, edit the first value for the appropriate class.

If you want to archive the contents of the MVS SPOOL spool file prior to deletion, change the second value to ‘Y’. The file will be copied to the location specified in the environment variable MF_SPOOL_ARCHIVE_LOC.
