User abend keyword procedure

Use this procedure when DFSORT terminates abnormally and when you receive a nonzero user completion code.

You need a message for this procedure. If you did not receive any messages, refer to How to get messages.

Look at the user completion code.
- If the code is less than 1000, it corresponds to a DFSORT error message. Go to Message keyword procedure.
- If the code is equal to or greater than 1000, continue with step 2.
Record the user abend keyword in the following format:
```
ABENDnnnn
```
where nnnn is the user abend code.
For example, if your system completion message contained ABEND S000 U1004, your keyword string so far would be:
Keyword string
5740SM105 RL00 BLOCKSET SORT ABEND1004
The next keyword is the module’s name. Go to Module keyword procedure.
