I don't know about others, but i have had major problems using BULDACCT.
The files it created were so large that EDITOR couldn't read them.
The jobs aborted with some strange error that I never did get sorted out.

So I have relied (in error??) on the Directory created as part of the Roadrunner
backups.
As soon as I find my old CSL tape, I plan on rescueing the old "builtaccount"
program I wrote many years ago and fix it to correctly handle User Volumes.
