Based on my reading of the manuals, it will not be automatically
selected for APPLY.

"To reapply a SYSMOD, you must specify it in the SELECT operand and
include the REDO operand on the APPLY command."

"REWORK allows an updated SYSMOD to be automatically received again, as
long as it is more recent than the version that has already been      
received. This takes the place of rejecting the SYSMOD and receiving  
it again."

But you already knew that.

I am not aware of any LIST or REPORT that will help identify such
differences.  You would have to roll your own.  But I also think this is
a good idea and worthy of a requirement request.

Subject: SMP/E PTF REWORK; RECEIVE, APPLY, and ACCEPT

I create a PTF; RECEIVE, APPLY, and ACCEPT it.  Then I rework it
with a higher REWORK operand.  RECEIVE witn no SELECT operand
will automatically RECEIVE it if it appears in SMPPTFIN because
of the higher REWORK.  But will APPLY or ACCEPT with no SELECT
likewise select it automatically?  I suspect not; barring that,
is there any LIST or REPORT command that will identify PTFs in
the TARGET and DLIB zones whose REWORK doesn't match that in
the GLOBAL?

(Wishlist item: SHA-1 checksums in the zones to verify that the
PTFs APPLYed and ACCEPTed match those RECEIVED.)

My personal choice would be to eschew REWORK and issue a SUPerseding
PTF with a unique sysmod ID, but I may be overruled by management.
