Readme for BK_rel_check.cmd REXX command procedure.

               BK_rel_check   Version 1.0
               ==========================

Abstract:
---------
BK_rel_check.cmd is an REXX command procedure to list all BK relationships for
which the corresponding record in the MERVA USE database has an approved 
record start, end or suspend date that is greater than the specified date.

Installation:
-------------
Download the BK_rel_check.cmd to your MERVA USE and Branch Rel. 4.2 
workstation and copy it to the directory

     <ENM_PATH>\misc
   
where <ENM_PATH> represents the drive and path in which Merva is installed
(for example,  d:\merva\use_branch )

Usage:
------ 
Open a command prompt and enter: 

     d:\merva\use_branch\misc\BK_rel_check [<date> | <date> <outfile>]

        <date>        A date in the form YYYYMMDD. Only BK relationships
                  with an approved record start, end, or suspend date 
                  that is later than this date are listed. 
                  The default is the current date. 
                  
        <outfile>     The name of the output file into which the list of
                  BK relationships is to be written. If the file with this
                  name already exists the list is appended to the contents
                  of that file. The default is a name of the form
                  BK_rel_YYYYMMDD.lst , where YYYYMMDD represents the 
                  current date.
                                 
Examples:
---------
   On 15 July 2008, enter:

    d:\merva\use_branch\misc\BK_rel_check 20080928  rels.lst

        This creates a list of all BK relationships that contain 
        record start, end, or suspend date that are greater than 
        28 Sept 2008, and stores it in the file rels.lst 

   On 15 July 2008, enter

    d:\merva\use_branch\misc\BK_rel_check 

        This creates a list of all BK relationships that contain 
        record start, end, or suspend date that are greater than 
        15 July 2008, and stores it in the file BK_rel_20080715.lst
