One of my customers has a similar situation (but different) regarding Item
Balance records and instead of writing a program, they use the Presence Alert
system introduced at the MAPICS conference to automatically send an email
message to the person(s) responsible for the data.  Pretty neat stuff - you
don't have to have an AS400 scheduled job or write a program.

You could use this system to check the Last Maintained Date and the Item Type
to determine when to issue an Alert.
