ZONEDDECOVP


Traditionally, BMC AMI Unload formats decimal-zoned values with the system default zone digit, which is C for positive values and D for negative values. You can specify the ZONEDDECOVP option to assign overpunch values to decimal-zoned numeric values.

The overpunched values can be positive or negative.

  • The first operand specifies the zone overpunch value for positive numbers. Standard positive overpunch values are A, C, E, and F.
  • The second operand specifies the zone overpunch value for negative numbers. Standard negative overpunch values are B and D.

This option can be useful when you plan to use the unloaded data with an application that requires a specific zone value that is not the traditional default.

To obtain the absolute value of a number or to ensure that the value is in data external format, you can specify ZONEDDECOVP (F,F).
