Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** EGL validates the number of digits entered for numeric UI record fields. The EGL0703E error (Number of allowable significant digits exceeded) was incorrectly reported for int fields when a valid 10-digit number was entered. It also happens with smallint fields and valid 5-digit numbers, bigint fields and valid 19-digit numbers, and bin fields with valid 5/10/19-digit numbers.
Problem conclusion
The validation code has been fixed. The EGL0703E error will be given only when the input value is truly too large.
Temporary fix
