Re: GL Purge

I notice you're on 3.51...

Back when we were on 3.5.1, a kind JBA consultant sent me a copy of a JBA
document that basically said the G/L archiving/purging routines in 3.5.1
were BAD, BAD, BAD and should NEVER be used.  If my memory serves me
correctly, I believe JBA's intent was to incorporate the fixes into 3.5.2.

We used the GL Purge for the first time last weekend and we are having a
problem with GL992 Program (Purge Vat Transactions).
The program Purges FLPUK4 records for a given period range.
For every valid record in FLPUK4 the program tries to get its corresponding
record from PLP15 by searching through the entire file if the source is AP,
so the purge routine was running for ever. We are actually trying to fix
this program by substituting the existing logical PLMSSESN by PLUNITMS so
that it can pick up the exact records.
Let me know if any one had similar problems and I also want to caution you
to look into this program before you attempt a GL Purge.
FYI we are using V351 of System 21
