Paul,
I believe when you compile *PRV the compiler looks at the command in the
QSYSV6R1M0 library. If you did not apply the PTF SI44866 prior to upgrading
to V7R1, the command in that library will not reflect the new parameter.
Thank you,

Subject: RE: V7R1 CL compile failing for CPYTOIMPF when specifying
Targetrelease *PRV
Mark,
I found IBM doc N1015157, CPYTOIMPF and Record Order, states that the order
by was added by PTFs for both V7R1 and V6R1.
The latest V7R1 PTF is SI50479.
Does this mean if IBM changes functionality with additional parameters, via
PTFs, Target Release *PRV will not work.
SQL does not guarantee the order in which records are returned unless an
ORDER BY clause is specified. The CPYTOIMPF command uses SQL under the
covers (with no ORDER BY). Therefore, the order of the records in the
destination file was not guaranteed. This is still true for release V5R4 and
prior releases.
At V6R1 and V7R1, the CPYTOIMPF has been enhanced by PTFs with a new option
ORDERBY:
CPYTOIMPF ORDERBY(*NONE)
CPYTOIMPF ORDERBY(*ARRIVAL)
CPYTOIMPF ORDERBY(Col1, Col2)
This enhancement needs to apply those PTFs, or their superseding PTFs:
R610: SI44866 (APAR: SE48718)
R710: SI44871 (APAR: SE49612)
Extract from the cover letters of those two PTFs:
CPYTOIMPF will allow the user to add a new parameter, Order By
which will order the records being exported. The Order By
parameter will support any valid SQL order by clause and the
records will be exported into the to file in the order requested
by the parameter. This fix includes a new version of the
CPYTOIMPF command which includes the new parameter.

Paul:
The CPYTOIMPF command did not have an "ORDERBY" parameter at V6R1 or before
that. That was added at V7R1, and perhaps even not added until one of the
"Technical Refresh" levels after V7R1 was released (because when I prompt
CPYTOIMPF at V7R1 and press F10=Additional parameters, and put the cursor in
the "ORDERBY" field and press F1=Help, it says "Help not available.").
So, your CL program will not compile with TGTRLS(*PRV) unless you omit the
"ORDERBY(*ARRIVAL)" specification.
Cheers,

Compiles fine if Target release current.
