RE: Date simulation

You can change the system date, QDATE, for all jobs within a session and it will affect only the jobs that run in that session. It will allow us to run a year-end in a test environment by just flipping the date once. (Our fiscal year is going to start on Jan 1 after decades of starting on Dec 1)

I've heard of SIMDATE, but never used it. What does it do that CHGJOB doesn't do?

Any SIMDATE users out there? Any former users who've gone to something else? This is a program that we bought for Y2K and it allows a change of the system date for job. We need to re-license it or purchase something else.
