  ****************************************************************
  1. When a subtask fails causing the ODF main task to shut down,
  ODF is not using the return code on the termination of the task.
  
  2. The UI93297 PTF did a SUP(UI82660) but did not supersede the
  JCLIN in UI82660.
  

Problem conclusion

• 1. ODF is modified to use the return code from a failed subtask
  when termination the ODF main task.
  
  2. The PTF for PH55293 will properly PRE(UI82660).
