OPS7914O SSM AUDIT: Messages for SCHEDMODE column missing

Issue/Introduction

Not seeing SSM AUDIT: Messages when SCHEDMODE column value changes 

Environment

Release : 14.0

Resolution

Absence of audit messages for the SCHEDMODE SSM column is expected behavior because not all SSM columns are monitored by default, including SCHEDMODE.

OPS parms SSMMONITOREDCOL1 through SSMMONITOREDCOL5 are available for including additional column names for audit monitoring, but care should be taken to only add columns that are not continuously updated. Adding SCHEDMODE should be fine since it is not updated often.

Example line in the OPSSPA00 startup member:

T = OPSPRM_Set("SSMMONITOREDCOL1","SCHEDMODE")
