Element Classification

Copying the values delivered for PSUNV, enter the reporting classification for the element. Values are CM (classification mapping), DM (direct mapping), MM (master mapping), RB (rules based), and SM (separate mapping).

RB Procedure Nbr (rules based procedure number)

Copying the values delivered for PSUNV, for rules based elements only, enter a procedure number. This number defines the procedure number that the extract program executes. You cannot create duplicate procedure numbers within a report type. MET procedure numbers must be numbered in the 200 series. Changes and additions to the values delivered for PSUNV require modification.
