You might want to verify your status.

We migrated to a version of BPCS that was "allegedly Y2K compliant" when we 
did so a year and a half ago, but SSA has had a steady stream of fixes of Y2K 
bugs.  I found out on other threads of BPCS_L about this situation & in the 
past 2 months have installed over 1,000 SSA fixes, just because of Y2K ... 
actually only 10% of them were to fix Y2K bugs, but it was simpler to get 
current than to just extract the Y2K bug fixes, some of which had 
dependencies with other BMRs.

Testing can be a nightmare.  There are automated tools for testing fixes from 
SSA or for our own internal modifications, but we are not using any.
