3. Prediction Patterns
Prediction Patterns in Version 16 work as they did in 15.2 (when switch 64-MULTI-85X in tab 10 was set to Y).
The system uses prediction fields 853/4/5 and 853X/4X/5X in either the HOL or ADM record
Publication Schedule records (Z17) are no longer created. The Z17 table is no longer in use.
Punctuation is automatically inserted by the system and should not be included in the pattern field.
The Prediction Pattern formatting in v.14.2 and v.15.2 (when switch 64 set to N) is no longer valid.
