Here's the latest update from IBM support.

I have discussed this with the developer, it is not a simple fix, he is planning on answering the APAR as UR1 which is 'Fix in a future release' or possibly even permanent restriction, so no relief in sight.

This issue has been reported to IBM, APAR SE60592 created.
Waiting for answer from development if it can be PTF'd or will be in next release.

Has anyone experienced this?
When in PDM, 2=Edit, CMD 15, Selection=2=Spool file, latest spoolfile
not being displayed.
I think possibly because the job number has wrapped, and the last
spool file is not necessarily the one with the highest job number.
Do you think IBM would fix this if reported?

Effectively the same issue was eventually resolved [IIRC the potential for the issue and the impacts, had existed in releases prior to the change] with, for example, Delete Spooled File (DLTSPLF) and Copy Spooled File (CPYSPLF), via their additional parameter: Spooled File Created (CRTDATE)

<www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_ibm_i_71/cl/dltsplf.htm> search page for the "Spooled file created" details; notably for the special value *LAST. Note: the additional capability with the Job System Name
(JOBSYSNAME) parameter might also be desirable for finding via Browse/Copy.

Did [or not] the PDM Browse/Copy Options panel get extended for its Browse/Copy Spool File to add a similar prompted values (CRTDATE) [and maybe even (JOBSYSNAME)], or are only the spool file name, job, user, job number, and spool number being presented?
