Question & Answer
Question
I have a program that deletes journal receivers based on
DSPOBJD save date (ODSDAT or Save date) but have one where the *JRNRCVs do not have that data filled in but WRKJRNA does show a save date. Therefore my program is not deleting the *JRNRCVs even though they have been saved.Cause
This is correct if the
*JRNRCVs are in QSYS and your save is a SAVSYS.Answer
SAVSYS does not the Update history (UPDHST) parameter.The save date and time are only updated when UPDHST(*YES) is specified when a save command is run.
So objects in QSYS library will not have save history info if they were saved with SAVSYS command.
Per the Security reference when setting up QAUDJRN the *JRNRCVs should not be created in QSYS:
Place the journal receiver in a library that is saved regularly. Do not place the journal receiver in library QSYS, even though that is where the journal will be.
