Resolution

Regarding your CA Bundl question on determining the last time a report was viewed and how often it was viewed...

The answer is yes. You can run the CC50J080 (PGM=DPMB080) utility against the VIEW index file using the following parameters:

INDEX=***V

FUNCT=LIST

DETPR=Y

ALLSW=Y

You could also use any of the other available parameters (such as LDATE and ENDLD) to customize or limit what information will be contained in the output.

The report produced by the above will reflect both a "LAST VIEW ACCESS" and a "ACCESS DAY COUNT" field which should help you to determine viewing activity information.

Additional information on interpreting the output from the CC50J080 utility:

- If LAST VIEW ACCESS date = (Bundl date) and ACCESS DAY COUNT = 1, the report was viewed on the day it was collected.
- If the ACCESS DAY COUNT is blank then the report was never viewed.
