Symptoms

Upgrade from A9.3 to A9.4, at Section 3.10.3 in the A9.4 Upgrade Guide, Use the DREAM Writer Review Workbench and find the upgrade process has made changes to Data Selections, Data Sequences and Processing Options in many customer versions of various Dream Writers.  When comparing the A9.4 JDF library to the A9.3 production client library, no changes are detected. 

For example, changes were made to data selection in customer versions of P034201, Accounts Receivable Detail - Optional Aging. The change was made to data selection on Payment/Item Document Type from EQ *BLANKS to NE *VALUE with no values defined.  Research reveals JDE Version XJDE0003 was used to update customer versions regardless of the JDE version copied to create the customer versions.

Another example involves changes to data sequences in customer versions of P04413, Accounts Payable Summary. The Option field (KOPT) changed from N to Y, the Total Level (LTOT) changed from blank to 1 and the Page Skip (PAGE) changed from N to Y.  Research reveals JDE Version XJDE0004 was used to update customer versions regardless of the JDE version copied to create the customer versions.
