Working Date

Many sites do not use midnight as the formal time for changing to a new date. A site, for example, may determine that all processing performed between the hours of midnight and 6:00 a.m. belongs to the previous day’s processing. In this case, the installation working date at the site changes at 6:00 a.m., not at midnight.

The working date (meaning, the time at which the date changes at the site) is defined in the Control-M/Tape installation parameters. The New Day procedure is generally triggered at the beginning of the working day.
