I have been trying to create a batch job using direct commands/ menus to run reports in SYSPAA. The manual provides various direct commands to be used, but I am unsuccessful in getting this working. Can anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong or where to look for solutions?

I include the input cards below:

SYSAOS,USERID  
LOGON SYSPAA  
MENU  
REPORT JOB DEPLOYMENT TRES TRESPROD  
FIN

The manual indicates the following syntax:

REPORT  
Command Syntax

REPORT JOB job-number

REPORT JOB [DEPLOYMENT application-name status-name]  
[FMDD date’yyyy-mm-dd’ [FMTT time’hh:mm’]]  
[TODD date’yyyy-mm-dd’ [TOTT time’hh:mm’]]  
😢
