RE: ASD File

[Alister Wm Macintyre <macwheel99@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Perhaps you should ask MAY we clear the contents?

This is a decision for your accounting department.
Do they want all that data that they keyed in wiped out?
Or is it just the deleted records you want to clear?

We habitually run SYS120 in dedicated BPCS mode to get rid of records BPCS 
knows to be deleted, and a bunch other 400 reorgs, and occasionally run IBM 
400 reorg on files that SYS120 does not get at, but which have accumulated 
significant deleted records.
and have also written a few programs to delete ancient records that 
standard BPCS not getting rid of, such as accounting activity on fiscal 
years long since closed, and need to write some for files containing items 
customers orders etc. that no longer exist.

I periodically review with my end users how long they want to keep records 
that I think are dead, then tinker with the kill modifications accordingly.

In 405 CD I think that would be the only damage done ... in other words 
accounting personnel transcribed from some paperwork that might be 
difficult to reconstruct.
