<h1 class="topictitle1">Close considerations for sequential-only processing</h1>
<div><p>The considerations apply for closing files when sequential-only
processing is specified.</p>
<p>When a file for which sequential-only processing is specified is closed,
all records still in the output buffer are added to the database. However,
if an error occurs for a record, any records following that record are not
added to the database.</p>
<p>If multiple programs in the same job are sharing a sequential-only output
file, the output buffer is not emptied until the final close occurs. Consequently,
a close (other than the last close in the job) does not cause the records
still in the buffer to appear in the database for this or any other job.</p>
