======================================================================

There is no way to force the Job to continue with the next line. When specifying TSSUTIL input parameters, the ACID will be verified to see if it exists on the system where the TSSUTIL report is being run.

If it doesn't exist, message TSS8007E - ACCESSOR ID UNKNOWN will be displayed.

To report on the ACID receiving the TSS8007E message, TSSUTIL must be run on the system where this ACID is defined.

If an ACID isn't specified, i.e. 'REPORT EVENT(ALL) END', then this will run on any system.
