> MAPICS has two programs used to retrieve and format dates.
>
> AXZPDR is used to retrieve the current MAPICS date and time. It also
> retrieves the tailored date format code.
>
> AXZDT is used to format dates between *USER (ie. MMDDYY) and *FILE (ie.
> CYYMMDD) formats. It has parms for input date, output date, the date
> format code retrieved from AXZPDR and the type of formatting you would
> like to do. (This program also has other functions such as calculating
> a date given a date and number of days)
>
> If you do not use these programs, be careful with job date for
> unattached jobs. Unattached jobs will have a job date of the date the
> job started - it's not necessarily the current date.
