PI73305: ARITHMETICEXCEPTION THROWN IN EXTERNALDECIMALMARSHALLER. MARSHALLEXTERNALDECIMALINTOBUFFER

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• If user stores a BigDecimal value with more digits than the
  Cobol picture field allows, the setScale method throws an
  exception. Solution is to call the rounding variant of setScale.
