I recently had a question that was answered but I was writing in shell with cygwin. I found out I need to make this krn Shell compatible for MKS Toolkit.
The sed command does not like this and I am looking for a solution. the file is such that anything ending with -0 needs a date change with user input.

[[ $user_date = $(date -d "$user_date" +'+%y%m%d') ]]
for i in "$user_date"
do
sed -E '/-0$/{s/ ([^ ]{1,10})[^ ]* / \1'"$user_date"' /2}' ../*.txt > ../neworder.txt
done
suggesting single line awk :
awk '/-0\s*$/{$2=gensub("[0-9]{6}$",d,1,$2)}{printf("%-12s%s %s\n",$1,$2,$3)}' d="$(date '+%y%m%d')" *.txt
