Condition display modes in the Why screen

If a job is waiting for prerequisite conditions, the conditions can be displayed in the Why screen in two different modes:

Conditions for which the job is not waiting because they already exist are displayed with the string 'SATISFIED' following their original scheduling date. Conditions for which the job is not waiting, even though they do not exist, are displayed with the string 'REDUNDANT' following their original scheduling date. To switch between the display modes, use the CNDSHOW command. Typing CNDSHOW MISSING switches to the Missing Conditions display mode, and typing CNDSHOW ALL switches to the All Conditions display mode.

The condition display mode upon entry to the screen is determined by the value of the SWHYCND variable in the user's profile: If the value of SWHYCND is M, then the Missing Conditions display mode is used (this is also the default, if the SWHYCND variable is not found the user's profile). If the value of SWHYCND is A, then the All Conditions display mode is used.
