Error description

• Per PMR 58671,180,000
  
  ================================================================
  Prereq: APAR PM78953
  
  Date reported: 01-31-2013
  
  Severity: 1
  
  Users Affected:
   All IMU users of MU V3.2
  
  Problem Description:
   Customer is getting COBOL Compiler error IGYPS2008 (missing
   period) before Axxxxx-AUTO-GENERATE-READ paragraph on
   INITIALIZE statement.
  
  Problem Summation
   The error is caused by a JOB statement that does not contain
   any Activity statements but RESET=EASYT and at least one field
   is defined with the RESET option.
   The work-around is to insert a GOTO JOB or a STOP statement,
   depending on the JOB intention, at end of the JOB activity
   statements.
  
  Example: The following would cause "IGYPS2008 missing period"
  error.
  
   FIELDA  W   1 A RESET
   JOB INPUT NULL
  
   JOB INPUT FILEIN
  
  To get around it code:
  
   FIELDA  W   1 A RESET
   JOB INPUT NULL
   STOP
  
   JOB INPUT FILEIN
  
  Problem Conclusion:
   The EASYT007 macro was changed to generate a period after the
   INITIALIZE statement
  
  
  Changed byte code macros:
  
  FSOFT01.V3R2M0.SFSYFJCC
   EASYT007 - Existing macro
