Invalid values consist entirely of blanks, contain characters other than 0-9, or a have blank as part of the region number. The ONCODE associated with this message is 54.

System action

The ERROR condition is raised.

Programmer response

Ensure the key is in the correct format. If necessary, use the ONKEY built-in function in a KEY ON-unit to identify the erroneous key. The ON-unit can be used to report any such errors and allow processing to continue. Records associated with the erroneous keys can be transmitted in a subsequent run if the keys have been corrected.
