APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Gentran Server for Microsoft Windows release 5.1
    
    The BRK997 was not updated after the 3rd element of the AK1
    segment was added to the standard in the 004041 release.
    
    This caused the translator to issue the Too Many elements error
    when processing the 005010 997.
    
    This issue was observed in release 5.2 and 5.3
    

Local fix

  • STRTC 362804
    WW/WW
    
    The 3rd element could be copied into existing BRK997 from a new
    997 map that has version 004041 or higher. Then the element
    would need activated, the map saved and compiled, and
    registered.

    the map for fields 10 & 12 from 1 to 0.
