How many times have we seen an ISV's SMPE install that is simply an IEBCOPY unload and their CSI is less than acceptable. I have time and time again --- CA is a big culprit here ---- had to manually go into the Receive sourcee and tweak their SYSMODs due to not even attempting to validate PREREQ/COREQ checking. If a Vendor is not going to use SMPE as it is supposed to be used, don't even bother trying, I would rather just have an unload file and move on. Having to debug their code and also debug their SMPE logic is a waste of my time. And no, reporting the errors to them does not help.
