Updating AS400 Tables

Hallo everyone.
I am employed in an IT Department as a programmer. We use AS400 system.
Due to economic changes we are faced with a currency change situation which will badly affect our database tables. We want to be prepared for that change.

I want to know how do you make those currency changes on the database that is lying on OS400.
Things to consider are as follows:
- converting old balances to new currency
- making new payments using new currency
- reconciling old balnces which had old currency and new values.

The currency is most likely to be a certain percentage of old currency meaning that they will not be of the same value.

Please assist me in preparing for this change.

Sure, what have you done so far to prepare for this?

Please also consider our policy on projects and assignments.

think you just have to write some programs to make the changes.
Are you using the DDS files or an SQL database?
Are you planning on changing the content of the files or only the data in the files?
