  ****************************************************************
  A CHLAUTH record's DESCR or CUSTOM fields should be cleared by
  setting the DESCR or CUSTOM field to one or more blank space
  characters with the SET CHLAUTH command.
  
  If the DESCR or CUSTOM field already contains a value prior to
  clearing the field, then some residual data from the previous
  setting may remain.
  

Problem conclusion

• Processing has been amended to ensure that the DESCR and CUSTOM
  fields are cleared when set to blank characters.
