If it's configured, correct.

But, errflags doesn't figure out a differnce between filedate, fileending(aka
day of the year) or filename/ending inside the submitted file.
It does simply checks about the flags, not about the day of the year.

the crc will be generated, if it's configuered. If generating of the crc is
configured, errflags will but it inside on top of the submitted file.
It doesn't check the 'day of the year' at all.

Well, I found the lines. :-)
Because of your message about errflags, I've had a nice evening with a quite
old pascal source-codes.
Tha for that. :-) And now I'm getting a propper cold beer.

I know. I'm getting the information pages of your errflags 2.15. My Downlinks
getting the information pages from my errflags 2.18 /OS2 EcomStation 2.2
compiled on my lokal machine on 29.10.2017 0:00h
