Suppose we have a line-item file, and a part master file.
The line item records have a part number. And it cross-references to the
part master file.
But if a given part is stocked in two or more warehouses, then the part
master file has a record for it at each warehouse that stocks it.
Now, suppose we have a join between the line item file and the part
master file, on the part number. For each line item, the join is
returning a record for every matching part master record.
Not especially good. Is there a way, that works in DB2/400, to limit
that to only one join record per line item? And to select, for example,
the one with the low value in the "lead time" field?
