Re: IBM i 7.1 SYSTOOLS.PTF_GROUP_CURRENCY question

Had this same issue on 7.3. Had to rebuild a view. Known issue.

First, start out by reading the steps at the end, but before the comments,
at
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/IBM%20i%20Technology%20Updates/page/SYSTOOLS.GROUP_PTF_CURRENCY%20view

<snip>
Development asked that you tell us the results of the following SQL
statement:
select cast(long_comment as varchar(100)) from qsys2.systables
where table_name = 'GROUP_PTF_CURRENCY' and table_schema =
'SYSTOOLS'

Then to reset the view, run in SQL: comment on table
systools.group_ptf_currency is ''
and later from the command line at a time of low Database use: CALL
QSYS/QSQSYSIBM
</snip>
Basically the comment tells them version info.
Then you reset the comment to null.
Then you call that program to rebuild it.
In my case the comment at the beginning was the proper version, it just
needed to be rebuilt.

Here's my results (I used Run SQL Scripts):
<snip>
select cast(long_comment as varchar(100)) from qsys2.systables
where table_name = 'GROUP_PTF_CURRENCY' and table_schema =
'SYSTOOLS' ;

DB2 FOR IBM i SUPPLIED OBJECT VERSION 07300010003

comment on table systools.group_ptf_currency is '';

SELECT P.*
FROM systools.group_ptf_currency P
ORDER BY ptf_group_level_available - ptf_group_level_installed desc;

PTF_GROUP_CURRENCY
no longer says PSP INFORMATION NOT AVAILABLE
but instead shows the correct information.
