     1.Run the following DB2 SQL statements to add 2 new columns.
    
     ALTER TABLE &REPZSCHM.PRODUCT      ADD BUNDLE_NAME CHAR(50);
     ALTER TABLE &REPZSCHM.TALTERNATE   ADD BUNDLE_NAME CHAR(50);
    
     2. An additional jobstep needs to be added immediately
        after the Aggregator jobstep in JCLLIB members HSISIQIM and
        HSISUIMP as follows.
    
    
     //SUITE    EXEC HSIJSQLE

               WHERE T1.PRODUCT_NAME = T2.PRODUCT_NAME)
         WHERE T1.PRODUCT_NAME IN
         (SELECT T3.PRODUCT_NAME FROM &REPZSCHM.TALTERNATE AS T3 );
      UPDATE &REPZSCHM.PRODUCT T1
    
      SET BUNDLE_NAME = (SELECT T2.BUNDLE_NAME
