Error description
NEWLIST TYPE=SYSTEM fields not populated correctly because RACF DB information is not referenced. For example, RACDBLEVEL is blank, and UNLOAD_DATETIME shows - ??? - instead of the date and time the report was executed.
Local fix
Add PWDREVOKE_SPECIAL(nd) to the output as this causes the RACF DB information to be referenced, for example: n type=system sortlist RACFDBLEVEL UNLOAD_DATETIME PWDREVOKE_SPECIAL(nd)
