You can do it that way but I prefer to build the service program once 
with EXPORT(*ALL) and then run RTVBNDSRC once against the service 
program. Then I edit the binder source if necessary and re-bind the 
service program using EXPORT(*SRCFILE). This gets all the exports in 
one go.

This is the only valid use of EXPORT(*ALL)

Be aware that RTVBNDSRC is only useful for the first build of a service 
program and possibly when a new module is being added to a service 
program. This is because it sorts the exports alphabetically by module 
thus undoing the benefit of binding source and signatures.
