Thanks ROB. My conversion documents did not have any explanation of
01/01/2001, but I saw the updated OGS posting dated 1/11/2000 which would
have been late last night my time. Thanks a lot for the prompt reply.


Regards,


AP

The conversion instructions advise you to change the CONVERT command Begin
Date
parameter to 20010101.

Hi,


We are currently running BPCS 405CD and implementing 6.1.1.   I have been
running data conversions and looking at discrepancies. Our current KMR,KFP
files have due dates of 2001/01/01 and these dates are getting converted as
1901/01/01. We are doing a multistep conversion and tracked down the problem
to when the database is converted from 5.2.2 to 6.0.0. I had a look at the
conversion programs for this step and found that the 6 digit date 10101 is
hard coded in all the programs and if any file date fields hit this then the
date is updated with 1901/01/01 which is the default century begin date in
the convert command. If I change this to 2001/01/01 it will fix the problem
but I'm not sure whether it will have any other repercussions since I cannot
find any logical reason for this begin date to be used in the first place.
any ideas? please help.
