Re: PTF's

Dennis,

I don't recall them getting that specific but in the past it was often a Catch-22. The Groups would say "Do the CUME" first, yet in the instructions for the CUME, just before you start it would say "If you have any other PTFs do those at this time." I always took that to include the groups. Chicken, Egg, Chicken, Egg....

My theory also is that since PTFs on the Group often supercede PTFs on the CUME why not do those first. That way when the CUME goes on those PTFs are skipped as already superceded. Seeems like it should save time and grief to me.

Putting on latest cume with the group ptf's & the instructions specifically
state that the group ptf's go on first followed by an IPL & then the cume
goes on.  I don't remember the instructions being that explicit before or
did I just not see them?  I will have to say that in all the years I've done
ptf's, I don't think I have ever done this process in that sequence.  I
would hate to think I've been doing it wrong all these years but I guess
anything is possible?

Thanks - Dennis.
