Beta 91 Workload QA is a leading tool for controlling the data quality of your batch production. It provides a standardised, automated method for verifying production input data and output. It detects an error instantly and notifies the appropriate person. Used in data centres worldwide, Beta 91 has built up a strong reputation for stability and reliability. Protecting yourself is a matter of rigorous data quality control. You need to catch errors on time, when they are quick and easy to fix, before they feed bad data into a series of applications, spreading throughout your company and out to your customers - and if you're extremely unlucky, to the press.

New Features

• The “HASH command” allows users to create hash keys for a record to prevent issues such as redundant processing of the same record. Moreover, the hash key ensures data integrity of transferred data.
• Read Job Logs form Beta 92 Spool. The new B92SPOOL module reads job logs or Beta 92 Spool logs and writes them to a data set that is further processed in the downstream verification procedure.
• SMF Records – Extended Header. The SMF record headers now contains additional information that helps to uniquely identify the source system (LPAR, SYSPLEX etc.).
