Data is truncated equally on the right for both old and new file which means that changed data past position 61 or 55 is not visible, but the line is still marked as changed.
W

Flag Line Options:
Underline changes

O
(Old) Underline changes in OLD record.
N

B
(Both) Underline changes in both OLD and NEW record.
blank
(Neither) Do not underline changes in either the OLD or NEW file.

Keyword underline character
Specify the character to be used as the one to underline the keyword for the changed data. This character is used in JCL keyword compare to indicate the keyword that has changes associated with it. It is also printed under the word CHANGE as an eye catcher on the keyword compare report. The actual changes have the Changed Data Underline Character as described above.
