RATIONALE

Provide a suite of standard functions that can be shared across all batch job scripts used to support database back end tasks. Provide a standardized approach for the development of all back end database job scripts. Centralize the administration and access to configuration data. Enforce coding standards and documentation. Abstract the sql used to support back end processes from the task processing logic, by placing all sqlinto an sql library. This will make maintenance of back end sql a trivial task. Provide generalized logging, notification, and system information functions.
