XSCALE will perform essentially the same scaling, but for more than one sweep. I usually use scala to merge data from XDS and XSCALE, using "scales constant" - however you could also use XDSSTAT.

I like this procedure because I get useful info, (such as Rpim), that I don't know how to get otherwise. I there any advantage/disadvantage of using this procedure instead of scaling and converting with XSCALE and XDSCONV? Thanks!
