DFSILTA0 utility Output compatibility between before V9 and after V10

Our customer upgraded IMS from V9 to V11 recently. IMS utility DFSILTA0 output increases after upgrading IMS from V9 to V11.
There is a twice as many difference as this in the number of processed transactions on a SYSOUT message. And in the number of output lines of DFSILTA0, there is an about 3 times as many difference as this.
DFSILTA0 was outputting per LU at V9. However, after V10, it has changed so that it may output per LTERM, therefore its number of output lines is increasing.
Our customer uses OUTPUT of DFSILTA0 and is creating the their report.
They are regarding that the continuity of data with an old report is lost as questionable, when the number of outputs increased by V11.
I checked some information, in order to get an output equivalent to V9 by V11, there is no parameter etc.
We request to add a parameter to V10 and later DFSILTA0 for getting an output equivalent to V9 DFSILTA0.

    Hello, Thank you for your support.
    Would you also consider providing the V9 version DFSILTA0 which compiled in V10 or later environment by another name, if it is difficult for you to add a parameter to the current DFSILTA0?
