Re: Resetting the next GL/UPDNOG

I read one reply that said a fix is out but I do know without the fix the
UPDNOG goes to zero so a transaction gets updated buut looks as if it
wasn't.  I usually advise that the UPDNOG be reset to 1 anytime after the
number reaches 900000.  This is easy using the menu option 31/GLU.  It
would be good practice to shut the G/L subsystem down first as you point
out.

Our GL "last update number used" is approaching its 7-digit max, and my
fear
is that either (1) it won't quietly roll on its own after 9999999, or (2)
it
will, and we'll have a zero which would indicate that the transaction
remains unprocessed.

I can do a Maintain Application Control (31/GLU) to change the number, but
the question is -
can we just shut down the GL subsystem, set the last update number to
0000001 and restart the subsystem without a hitch?
Has anyone else had to do this?

TIA,
