This Natural profile parameter is used to adjust the current machine date (as read by using the internal machine time) by adding/subtracting any number of days to/from it. This makes it possible to re-run an application that was to be run at a certain date but for some reason could not be run at that date.
The DD profile parameter is specified as
                      follows:
               
| DD=+nn | 
or
| DD=-nn | 
where nn is the number of days.
| Possible settings | -10953 to +10953 |  
                               
                        Machine date is adjusted. Specification of "+" is optional. |
