PH09309: S0C7 ON MOVE OF NON-NUMERIC DATA

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When COBOL program executes a MOVE of invalid data from a
  packed decimal field to a numeric edited field, a s0c7 may
  occur.
  

Local fix

• Correct the invalid data
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL V6.2 compiling     *
  *                 programs that MOVE non-numeric data          *
  *                 from a PACKED-DECIMAL sender to a            *
  *                 NUMERIC-EDITED receiver.                     *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The program may have a S0C7 abend.      *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF                       *
  ****************************************************************
  The compiler was previously changed to generate
  better-performing code for moves to numeric-edited data items.
  As the compiler doesn't guarantee the same behaviour as older
  versions for invalid data, the new instructions validate the
  digits and sign code of PACKED-DECIMAL values, abending when
  the digits or sign code are not NUMERIC.
  

Problem conclusion

• The compiler was modified to use less-efficient instructions
  that have the same behaviour as previous versions for customers
  using ZONEDATA(NOPFD) or ZONEDATA(MIG). Customers should use
  ZONEDATA(NOPFD) if they have invalid data and used
  NUMPROC(NOPFD|PFD) in V4.2, or ZONEDATA(MIG) if they have
  invalid data and used NUMPROC(MIG) in V4.2.
