While this is probably the "right" solution, I would be cautious about how
long it will take this job to run. We just found that some "bugs" in the
purge program (version 4.05, non-CD) were keeping a large number of things
from purging correctly. (Some of these were program problems, and some
were data problems we had introduced when we converted to BPCS 8 years
ago.) We have modified the program so that we do our purge separate from
the month end close, so that we can do it on the weekend following close,
and still have had to break our clean-up into many weekends, to get all the
data purged that should be. If you have a lot of records to purge, and you
are running this with users off the system at month end (as we do), your
users might not be very happy with how long this takes! I would suggest
doing this in a test environment first, to get an idea how long it will
take.

Please respond

That is a good solution. The month end process will purge the transactions
to the YTH file and resequence the sequence number in the ITH record and
reset the last sequence number in the IIM.
If you have more than 99,999 transactions in the file for the same item
this
will cause a duplicate sequence number resulting in a looping of INV300.
