Removes a specified number of characters from the beginning or end of the pipeline reference, depending on which keyword is present (START or END). If the keyword is not present, the default is to use END.
There are two modes of operation. If you set a number, it defines the number of characters stripped from all pipeline references. Alternatively, if you supply a string, the software only strips if they match the string. In the example command below, the software removes one character from the end of the pipeline reference.
PCF TRUNCATE-PIPELINE-REFERENCE END 1
Alternatively,
PCF TRUNCATE-PIPELINE-REFERENCE START 'AB'
removes the two characters, AB, from the start of the pipeline reference, presuming that the first two characters of the pipeline reference are AB.
