This operation is similar to an audit, except that instead of checking a single file in isolation the re-organise pointers option checks the relationship between the main and one of the detail files in your application. In the Data File Profiles / File Links section the pointers from the master file to the detail file were specified and whilst these are maintained automatically if detail records are added within screen actions in the application this option can be used to build new pointers, as well as checking existing pointers, when records are added outside the system.
When using the O-Organise option you specify against Parameter 1 the file number of the detail file whose links to the master file are to be checked.
