Re: SYS600 Security Change

Hello, 

Please be sure to check out everything about the new BPCS versions
before bothering to purchase add on products. There is also an option in
the new versions of SYS600 to permanently
delete the record (Purge)for example. Also the newer versions will
automatically
deactivate any BPCS users who are not found on the iSeries via use of a
single
Function key.  

Thanks,
