Hi Reggie,

we are using the KOMAND package to account for our computer costs. Komand
pulls data off IBM's SMF re usage, and applies costings to that usage.

We don't use KOMAND to its fullest, and I have written a user-friendly
front end system that gives us reports on computer usage by project
number. KOMAND is used by our operations people more for chargeback
by computer resource, rather than our business/applications view, which
is covered by my front-end system...

Hope this helps...
