If you leave this field blank and there are compilation errors, the Pathmaker product
creates a temporary file to contain the errors. The temporary file's name is:
ZZPML nnn
where nnn is a 3-digit number. To correct the errors, edit the requester copy library
for the requester. The ZZPML file is not deleted automatically unless no errors are
encountered. If errors are encountered, you must delete it manually when you are
finished with it, .

the date and time when this requester was created. You cannot type in these fields.
Modified By and At
Displays the user ID of the person who last modified this requester. The At field
displays the date and time of the modification. You cannot type in these fields.
