Optional. Use L CODE to define the location and length of a list code in the input record.
The term list code comes from the practice of merging several mailing lists together, using a code imbedded in the records to identify the source list of each record. You can use the L CODE parameter to designate any field of nine bytes or less in the input records. CODE-1 Plus has four reports that print information about your job by list code. The most common use of the L CODE parameter is to identify the list where a record originated. You can then use the list code reports to analyze the quality of the addresses on each of your original mailing lists.
