    From z/VSE 6.1 the Linkage Editor will set Return Code 4 when
    the "INVALID TRANSFER LABEL ON END OR ENTRY STATEMENT IGNORED"
    message is produced. Before z/VSE 6.1, this would have resulted
    in Return Code 0. A small number of CICS phases cause this
    message to be produced when processed by the Linkage Editor.
    
    A z/VSE 6.1 customer may be concerned by seeing Return
    Code 4 when a phase is replaced during PTF application even
    though there is no actual error.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The affected CICS programs and Linkage Editor control statements
    have been changed to avoid the message and the resultant Return
    Code 4.
