The DIFFER routine compares two numeric field values. This routine uses the following five modifiers to find matching scores.

[DIFF90] [DIFF80] [DIFF70] [DIFF60] [DIFF50]

DIFFER Routine Modifiers

The [DIFF90] [DIFF80] [DIFF70] [DIFF60] [DIFF50] modifiers can be any user-defined value, but they should be listed in ascending order.

For example,

  • modifier [1][2][3][4][5]
  • modifier [10][20][30][40][60]
Note: Each value must be enclosed in square brackets.
  Based on the numerics that exist in the records, the difference between the two (2) records determines what score is used.
