CA View - Unable to Delete a Report Online

Issue/Introduction

The View administrator is unable to delete a report, from the Report Selection List. 

If a "D" is used, there is the appearance of message "Invalid Selection Code".

Environment

Release : 14.0

Component : CA View

Resolution

The reason for the "Invalid selection code" message is due to having SARINIT setting of DELETE=NO, which prevents everyone from being able to use the View online to delete a report. 

Please see if the following JCL can be used to delete the report:

//XXXXXXXX JOB ...                                                
//SARBCH   EXEC PGM=SARBCH,PARM='VIEW_HLQ'  <=== MODIFY DB NAME   
//STEPLIB  DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=VIEW.CVDELOAD     <=== MODIFY, IF USED
//SYSPRINT DD  SYSOUT=*                                           
//REPORT   DD  SYSOUT=*                                           
//SYSIN    DD  *                                                  
/DELETE ID=XXXXXXXXXXXX GEN=NNNN SEQ=N                            
/*                                                                
//

The client said that the database in question had a SARINIT setting of DELETE=NO, and that the JCL was successful in deleting the report.
