I think the real point here is, if some "auditor" is asking for this
level of detail, it is a fool's errand to try to satisfy that request.

Yes I know of exactly such a document.

He already found a way to get there programmatically using an API

Now the OP is just trying to find a way to get the output of this API
without writing a program.

Yep - do you know of a document that ties PTFs to system objects and
explains what was changed?
It's an unreasonable request from an auditor to have a system admin or
system owner to document what was changed by the vendor of the OS.

You do realize that this PTF output file has NOTHING in it whatsoever--
about the list of objects changed by a particular PTF id?
At this time I assume he already knows how to generate a PTF list.
He's looking for the objects changed by a particular PTF.

OS Level is v7.3 and as far as the auditors are concerned, and forexisting CMD.
the purpose of our current requirements, we just want to see
traditional objects, not IFS.
Ideally, we would like to produce a report showing PTF Number, Date
Applied, Object, Object Type, Object Library, Object Change Date,
Size, etc.

What is your definition of an "object"? Just stuff in theRon
qsys.lib file system and not stream files in other places of the IFS?
If that's the case I was going to suggest querying
OBJECT_STATISTICS however, while that does have many of the fields
it does not have the PTF number as displayed in DSPOBJD
OBJ(QSQROUTE) OBJTYPE(*PGM)
DETAIL(*SERVICE) Sorry.

We had an odd request by auditors to verify objects changed by PTFs.
Is there an easy way to do this? I see there is an API (QPZRTVFX),
but I was hoping for something more standardized like an already
now.I suppose we could capture the log messages when we apply fixes,
but that only helps us for the future. We need to show past
changes right
