The journal is great, but hard to read for regular users. A timestamp
field with "update as row change" helps to follow changes in the same
record. The journal can not be modified.

I often use a trigger and a journal. The file created by the trigger can
be read by a program easy to use.

Also, you can use a trigger and a program that moves it to a file to
read it and show in an easy program.

I need to keep a permanent log of all data changes in a particular PF. I can think of two ways to accomplish this.

1. A DB2 journal with the receivers set to never expire.

2. A trigger that would write the before images to a separate PF.

I expect questions of "who changed what when" to be a weekly occurrence.

Either of those options sound better than the other? Anyone have a door #3?
