or still use title but change C0 to C1 ?

It seems valid as is, and an ini file containing this cheat should have the filename "ULJS00379.ini"

NB: As filename there is no hyphen in the game code, but in the "_S" entry inside the file the game code must have the hyphen between letter and number parts.

Now to deal with those four example text lines in turn

_S ULJS-00379
This confirms the game ID. I'm not sure if it's really needed, as PPSSPP uses ini files with game IDs in the filenames, but having this line is part of the standard format used in the "cheat.db" files, and it is extracted this way from such files by PPSSPP.

_G Dai-2-Ji Super Robot Taisen Z Hakai-hen
This confirms the game title for a human reader. I think the content after "_G " is arbitrary, but it's very useful to have since the filename isn't very helpful in confirming what game it is (with a large number of games I don't memorize all the ID codes). This too is part of the standard format as used in cheat.db files and as extracted from such into '.ini' files by PPSSPP.

_C0 SP Not Dec.
or
_C1 SP Not Dec.
This defines the title of an individual cheat and may be followed by multiple cheat opcode lines. The third character defines whether this cheat is currently enabled (1) or disabled (0). PPSSPP alters this character in the file each time you enable or disable a cheat in the ingame menu.

_L 0x20174240 0x00A02021
This is a cheat opcode line, which for this case specifies a 32-bit write of the data 0x00A02021 to PSP address 0x00174240.

NB: I assume you knew some of this already, but thought it best to be as explicit as possible in the explanations, not just for your benefit but for others who may read this as well.

In the form you wrote those four lines they should be accepted by PPSSPP as a valid "ULJS00379.ini" file containing a single cheat currently disabled.

Btw:
I have absolutely no idea if the cheat in your example really works as intended for your game. In the above I'm just speaking of valid cheat file usage.
