Other Uses for Redirection

In addition to redirecting usages within a version group to make a version current, you can use the Redirect Model Objects (YRDRMDLOBJ) command in the following ways:

• Redirect the usages of functions and messages that are not versions if they are both of the same type. For example, you can redirect usages from a DSPFIL function to an EDTFIL function, but you cannot redirect from a function (FUN) to a message (MSG).
• Redirect usages to a version in another version group. In this case, both versions must be the current version in its own version group.

  The "from" object remains current after the transfer and the implementation name is not transferred. This ensures that there is a current member in the "from" group.
