For information on using the Finalist Early Warning System (EWS) option, refer to the section Using EWS Processing.
For z/OS environments, the FNSOURCE PDS includes the LOADEWS JCL. LOADEWS reads the raw EWS file and creates a BAL (assembler) table that contains the same data. This table is compiled and linked under the name PBFNEWS. The PBFNEWS module replaces the default (empty) module that ships with Finalist. Customers choosing to use the PBFNEWS module must re-populate and replace the module every time new EWS data is received. Precisely ships EWS data monthly. The USPS distributes EWS data weekly.
