+(iDOCS 8.0 02/26/2025) With this enhancement you can control the aggregation sequence of merging multiple spool files.
+  * If the newly added IFDSPLDESC Data Area is set to ‘Y’, the aggregation process is identical to the older (pre-V8.0) logic merging multiple spool files in descending order.
+  * If the IFDSPLDESC Data Area is set to blank (default) or ‘N’, the aggregation process will merge the spool files in ascending order.
