*XDIM_NOSCAN

The instructions *XDIM_NOSCAN and *NOSCAN in *CALC_DUMMY_ORG allows you to load in memory information that is only needed in a *GET( ) statement and never used in a *IS statement. For example, in a Units * Price calculation the logic might read as follows:

In such situations, users can now instruct the logic to ignore the PRICE by simply saying:

*XDIM_MEMBERSET ACCOUNT=UNITS, PRICE

*XDIM_NOSCAN ACCOUNT=PRICE

*WHEN *

*IS *

*REC(FACTOR=GET(ACCOUNT=”PRICE”),ACCOUNT=”REVENUE”)

*ENDWHEN

This makes the scanning of the record set loaded in memory faster, as all those with account PRICE are skipped efficiently.

Similarly, a *NOSCAN instruction can be added to a *CALC_DUMMY_ORG structure. See *CALC_ORG.
