The function sets/resets the stsnof flag in the EBI in order to trace further write actions. When the flag has been changed, the last EBI mod count will be returned. When not being changed, 0 is returned. In case of an invalid LOID, the function returns ERIC (-99).

Return value: Number of items ( int32 )

The value contains the number of items to be processed or stored in a collection.
