If you are speaking of the same date that is on the prompt screen, here is
the help text associated with field.
Cutoff Date (6,0):
Selection of a cutoff date allows shop order and WIP valuation as of
that date. The value of labor transactions in the Labor Ticket
(FLT) file through the cutoff date is calculated. For material
cost, cumulative costs stored in the Material Allocation to Shop
Orders (FMA) file are reduced by the value of Inventory Transaction
History (ITH) records effective after the cutoff date. If the ITH
or FLT files have been purged after the cutoff date specified, an
error message is displayed instructing the user to enter a new
cutoff date.

drange.com Subject: CST270 Date Glitch?
01/05/2000

Please respond
to BPCS-L
For performance reasons I had been contemplating modifying CST900 to skip
CST270 which runs to over 10,000 pages on approx 3,500 shop orders & which
no
one has been using, but on the occasion of a new comptroller at Central, I
have been printing a few sample pages of audit trails associated with
regular
updates relevant to accounting to try to show what is going on behind our
scenes.
We run our BPCS 405 CD V4R3 @ month-day-year format so I was displeased to
observe 0/01/04 as the "cut-off date" on upper right corner of CST270 from
CST900 ... what is the significance of this date ... relative to say the
date
on top of report of 1/04.00 when this was run?
I checked enough to see the program is out of REL-2 with CST270B RPG
talking
to CST270O DDS - the field is RN0114 effective date from RN0054 from PRM004
in *ENTRY PLIST - there is no immediate evidence any of them manage any
processing ... just move field to field to field, so I am hoping this is an
SSA date conversion oversight.
I hate it when fields are named as if we were still programming in
alphabetized machine language ... it makes them so meaningless.
I am also curous how we came to have some shop orders with a "release date"
weeks in the future.
