PK67218: DFHMAVCP IS SETTING ATTRIBUTES S-MOVE-TYPE (DFH0032) AND S- METRIC-IND (DFH0035) TO X'F0' (PROTECTED).

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• A Service Flow MAP Screen is presented to the USER.  This MAP
  is initialized to set the Attributes on Fields to allow entry
  of Required Fields.  However, the Program does not recognize the
  Attributes have been changed and gets an error indicating that
  the user is trying to insert data into a Protected Field.
  .
  It appears that code in DFHMAVCP is causing fields S-MOVE-TYPE
  (DFH0032) and S-METRIC-IND (DFH0035) to set to Protected Fields.

  ****************************************************************
  In the reported problem, a service flow presented to the
  user, a map that contained protected fields which should have
  been unprotected.
                                                                 .
  DFHMAVCP had an indexing mechanism to process all named fields
  in the physical map and ADSD. This mechanism should have skipped
  GRPNAME fields but DFHMAVCP only skipped GRPNAME fields for the
  ADSD. As a consequence, the sequencing for ADSD and physical map
  fields got out of step. This manifested itself to the end user
  as a protected field which should have been unprotected. This
  was due to the fields attribute byte changing when it should not
  have.
  

Problem conclusion

• DFHMAVCP has been modified to process the GRPNAME fields in the
  physical map and the ADSD in step.
