The problem normally start up with no existing application is updating

programmer is creating the trigger correctly (not need to consider
commitment control). Thing then starts to go wrong when a new
application got created to update the file under commitment control.
Since we can't predict future, should we say or should IBM recommends
never create trigger that execute task that cannot run under commitment
control?

Given that the trigger interface has a field indicating the state of commitment control a sensible programmer WOULD write the trigger to handle commitment control REGARDLESS of whether it is used by any job altering the file.
