IBM® Application Time Facility for z/OS® provides numerous technology and business benefits: - It supports a wide range of languages, environments and formats, including just about any programming language.
- It handles all clock formats, including decimal, binary, timer units, microseconds and TOD. It also supports requests for date.
- The online ISPF interface makes it easy for programmers to specify the jobs to receive simulated dates on an individual basis, or as generic groups by using a wild card.
- Application Time Facility for z/OS is intuitive and easy to use, so minimal training is required, and it is supported by a complete on-line help system.
- It uses minimal system overhead, introducing virtually no additional load to your system, either on programs running the tool or programs with normal system time.
- Not only can you specify a virtual date, but you can also specify a virtual time. You can test end-of period (such as week, month quarter and year) processes, midnight and other sensitive times, and you can simulate communications that span several time zones.
