Re: Warning-BPCS 405 CD data files with bad creation dates

Al,

This company is a multi-user, multi-state manufacturing and distribution
company with online customer order processing.  For all practical purposes,
once you go live, there is no way to go back to the old system after about 6
hours, much less after a week or two.

Your other idea of getting a copy of someone else's 405CD files and just
copying our data was interesting, but I think that we would be safer creating
duplicate objects of our own files.  We know the file formats are correct,
they just have bad creation dates.  By creating duplicate objects on all the
incorrect files (one file set at a time and after hours when no one is on the
system), we should be okay.  It will be a pain to do this, but this way
assures that there won't be any additional problems, like level checks.
