  • Subject: Y2K Compliance BMR's
  • From: manus@xxxxxxxxx
  • Date: Mon, 22 Nov 1999 14:11:31 +0000



Based on recent postings to the BBB, and the huge interest received by
Slawomir Waligura, the following may be of help to some BPCS users.

Yes, upgrade paths have been provided by SSA to provide Y2K compliance, BUT
SOMETIMES Y2K PROBLEMS HAVE STILL BEEN IDENTIFIED AFTER MILLENNIUM
SOLUTIONS RAN THE 'MS4 Audit' SUITE OVER BPCS v6.04 ON BEHALF OF SEVERAL
BPCS CLIENTS.

The biggest issue is the fact that few organisations use the shipped BPCS
software without making in-house modifications and enhancements.  Along
with these modifications and enhancements there are also in-house developed
applications which do not have a Y2K upgrade available and may have been
manually 'fixed'.  This piecemeal approach provides the possibility that
the entire system may not be Year 2000 compliant.

Hundreds of BPCS users on versions ranging from BPCSv1.0 to BPCSv6.04 have
successfully used 'MS4 Audit', to verify the level of Y2K compliance and to
identify where the potential issues occur within the application database
and programs (and existing data).

'MS4 Audit' provides an invaluable final and ongoing assessment tool to
supplement an organisations current Y2K compliancy program for their AS/400
platform. 'MS4 Audit' takes only 3 days to perform its analysis and comes
from the same company who developed MS4 - the most popular Y2K tool amongst
BPCS users everywhere, and EM4 - the Euro Conversion tool for AS/400 users.
Millennium are now marketing the 'MS4 Audit' suite at a 60% discount to its
list price. They can be reached at +353-1-403-5400 or by email to
info@ms400.com

Regards,
Manus Bray.
