Checking the expiration date of a physical file member

 

The system can check whether the data in a physical file member is still current. You can specify whether the system checks the expiration date of a physical file member using the EXPCHK parameter on the Override with Database File (OVRDBF) command.

If you check the expiration date and the current date is greater than the expiration date, a message is sent to the system operator when the physical file member is opened.
