Re: Journal not showing update - DB won't update if nothing has changed?

This is nice to know. I've been known to test for changes to field values
before performing an update op, for the express purpose of avoiding a hit
to the table and the journal.

But I'm concerned about this statement:
But it's undocumented and might change with every PTF.
Does this refer to the OP (to avoid journal entries), or to the "flipflop"
technique you're using to force journal entries?

the lock, but no journal entry. As we wanted to have an entry (just to help
in troubleshooting) we've had to add a flipflop field to get the entries.
