The read-only Object Type field shows the type of object for which rules are being copied. For data queues, this is *DTAQ.

The read-only Object and Library fields show the object and library for which rules are being copied.

The remaining fields indicate the data queue to which the rules are being copied:

New Object

The name of the data queue. This can also be a generic name ending in an asterisk ("*") or *ALL, which refers to all the relevant items in the library named in the next field for which more specific settings have not been created. Once you have entered a library name in the next field, you can see a list of data queues by placing the cursor in this field and pressing the F4 key.

New Library

The name of the library containing the data queue. This can also *ALL, which refers to all libraries for which more specific settings for that data queue have not been created. To see a list of libraries, place the cursor in this field and press the F4 key
