Factory data

Factory data is defined in the data division in the factory paragraph of a class definition and is processed by procedural code in the factory methods of that class. Factory data is organized into logical records and independent data description entries in the same manner as program data.

There is one factory object for a given class in a run unit, and therefore only one instance of factory data in a run unit for that class.
