CIM600 is OK, current client used it to bridge in a WHM system. Our
programmer did need to tidy up some of the validation and allocation
logic. At April cum ECM for inventory programs didn't work. It is
working now after much effort from both SSA and another programming
team. I don't know how many of the repairs have shown up as BMR's or
PTF's.
