Description
Enables date/time stamp processing when set to 1. A system manager can reset DTS to zero to disable automatic date/time stamps. Turning off the date/time stamp feature does not imply that you cannot update any field, including the date/time stamp field; it simply stops automatic updates to the date/time stamp field.
| Value | Behavior |
|---|---|
| 1 | For date/time stamp files, transactions participate in DTS updating. The date/time stamp field of an updated record is automatically updated at the beginning of COMMIT processing. This is the default setting for the parameter. |
| 0 | Transactions do not participate in DTS updating. When a transaction does not participate in DTS processing, the date/time stamp field will not be updated on records that are themselves updated. |
The DTS parameter may be reset only by a user with system manager privileges. In addition, the user must have file manager privileges for any DTS-enabled (FOPT X'10') files opened, either before or after DTS is reset to 0. Turning off the DTS parameter affects updates only to date/time stamp files, so no special restrictions were placed on the file with no date/time stamp.
