Why save off keys?

Example:

Price record is changed to $3.10, then to $3.50, then to $3.25

Since price changed, must send the current PRICE record and the associated CONTRACT record.

Want to only send once at EOD, so I save off the CONTRACT ID and then at EOD send CONTRACT and all its associated records such as the PRICE record.

Why save off the keys? You have the whole record coming in so you do
your transformation and write to table for transfer or just send it
over immediately?

One simple solution would be to transform the data and then call a
Stored Procedure to update you ETL data using JDBC.(Assuming your
using a database like SQL Server to store your data) Since you are
running in batch you have no performance issues.

As I indicated, there are some tricks with RTVJRNE. I have some sample
code that handles the tricks.

OK thanks for all the feedback.

For this ETL project we have decided to try journals, for all the reasons everyone here explained.

Mostly due to requirements of file lock to modify trigger pgm, and instant updates to remote system is not required.

Plan is to RTVJRNE records for specific files/dates/times and save off record keys.

Each night, sort down keys and send CURRENT data record of that key which had changed data (don't send journal data).

Any suggestions regarding how to use journal files to accomplish this?  Or pitfalls to avoid?

Thanks
