    ADAMF-I-19 “ADASEL Enhancement to Produce Output for UsSERDATA from an ET”:

    This was scheduled and released as part of Adabas v861 last 2024OCT.

    From the documentation, Adabas 861 enhancement list for utilities:
    ADASEL ETUSERDA Write User Data Produced by an ET Command

    The ADASEL utility can now display user data written by an ET command with the DISPLAY option ETUSERDA.

    When choosing to DISPLAY ETUSERDA, all ET records are displayed. The records without ET user data attached display ETUSERDA unavailable. When you choose to display ET user data, you can specify the user data with a logical operator followed by the value-criterion ETUSERDA, which limits the ADASEL OUTPUT to only records with the specified user data, if they are present. For more information about the ADASEL utility, see Utilities > ADASEL Utility: Select Protection Data.
