I'm not familiar with the RLA generator, is this something outside of the CA 2E product?
'RLA' is programmer jargonese meaning Record Level Access.

In the 2E code generated as RPG, that means READ, CHAIN, SETLL, WRITE,
and all that. This is in contrast to SQL (whether embedded or not)
which looks like SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and so forth. Sometimes
programmers call that DML (Data Manipulation Language). Weirdly, I
can't recall SLA (Set Level Access) used for this purpose. Oh well.
