Resolution

For a report defined as Type BASIC, the report is complete and is processed as a whole entity.
This type of report will leave nothing in the spool after its processing.

For a report defined as Type STACK, pages can be selected based on a match of values in the report data (as match the Report Identification Text), and the pages can be stacked together for print or archive. 
Only if there is a match of the Report Identification Text will a report be processed and not leave anything in the spool.  If there is no match, then the report will remain in the spool.

For a report defined as Type MONITR (Monitor), the SYSOUT data set is written out unchanged, exactly as defined in the JCL.
The job creating the report will remain on the JES spool, for purposes of parallel processing.
