I should also state that everything was working correctly
until 2 day ago when this happened, so dont know if a job ended abnormally in mid stream or something.

If you suspect that, try running SYS993 for her work station id with option 6 (Customer Order Picking)
which is one of the programs I copied from SYS/23 to our FXS

However, that would not explain same work station working for some people but not for others, since vanilla BPCS (unless Y"all modified it) keeps track of stuff using combination of beginning characters of work station id and a few letters designating type of work being done.

Some of that stuff ends up in object type *DTAARA in your primary BPCS files library, which OS/400 permits us to access only one at a time. I have a program stream to dump all via DSPOBDJ into an *OUTFILE which an RPG then tries to analyse, comparing one line to the next to identify any time bombs from unreported abnormal terminations.

The other place to look is what members are in the E* files.
Beware ... there are a few specialized ones unrelated to work station tracking.

I earlier wrote

You are talking about a modification here, since in vanilla BPCS the IWM warehouse does not specify OUTQ.

Perhaps I could have phrased that better.

This is one of those places in BPCS that is setup for something but is not working, so that someone who has not read what passes for standard documentation, or been involved in the testing when BPCS first installed, may not know what stuff is in BPCS, that your version of BPCS ignores.

In this case you need something more than WRKMBRPDM
file BPCSDOC
library *LIBL
position to SSALOG00
