Permanent Defines

New data fields can be created by combining existing fields using the define command. In the snapshot file, these new data elements have been defined: 
Age
Ethnic Group
Service
Functional Classification Code
Functional Classification Name
Pay TUC
Campus Name
Special Fund Group
11 Locations
10 Locations
Employee Organization Bargaining Agent Flag
Employee Organization Deduction Type Code
Collective Bargaining Unit Code
Location 10
Location 11
For most practical purposes, the defined data elements function in the same way as other data elements.

However, if the user creates temporary defines during a session, the permanent defines are lost during that session, unless the user creates the word 'add' (see page on temporary defines).
