After you have made a change to work file definitions in the Workfile Definition utility, use this utility to update the work file information in the IBM i physical file members for a product line, for a program's work files, or for global work files. You usually do not need to use this utility to accomplish an update of the work file information in the physical file members because compiling the program or module will call workgen. Only use this utility if the work file information was not updated through the compile process.

Program Option Description
productline The product line containing the work files whose physical file members you want to update.
programcode The program that the work files belong to whose physical file members you want to update.
GLOBAL Indicates that the work files whose physical file members are to be updated are ones that do not belong to a specific program.
workfilename The specific work file whose physical file members you want to update.
