  1. Schedule tracking may incorrectly exclude records with only
     a PST tracking token where the PROGRAM name in the record
     does not match the PSB name for the schedule.
  2. Update Help description for IMS Connect Global Tokens used
     in Filtering.
  3. Updates are required to some Knowledge Modules as a result
     of IMS service updates.
  

Problem conclusion

• 1. Schedule tracking compares the Program name, if available,
     in a record containing only a PST token against the PSB
     name for the schedule. These may not match and a further
     check against the Program name for the schedule is
     required.
  2. Update Help description for IMS Connect Global Tokens,
     in particular LOGTOKEN:
      "LOGTOKEN IMS Connect Logon Token (Event Key)"
   3. Updates are required to some Knowledge Modules as a result
      of IMS service up to PUT1604.
