Error description
Per PMR 01414,379,000: Stratification report PRECISION field overflow. ================================================================ Date reported: 04/03/2013 Severity: Medium Users Affected: All IMU users of MU V3.2 Problem Description: The PRECISION_ value printed on the Stratification report is negative. Problem Summation The PRECISION_ field is defined as a 4 byte binary field with two decimal places. The maximum value that can fit into a BL4 signed integer with two decimal places is 21,474,836.46. Field overflow is caused when Precision value coded on the STRATIF1 macro exceeds 21,474,836 resulting in unpredictable outcome. Problem Conclusion: A change was made to STRATIF1 macro to define PRECISION_ as a PL7 instead of BL4 field. The change was made conditionally as follows: 1. If PRECISION_ is a number less or equal to 21,474,835, the field is defined as a BL4 field. 2. If PRECISION_ is a number greater than 21,474,835, the field is defined as a PL7 field. 3. If PRECISION_ is a field name, the field is defined as a PL7 field regardless of the size. Impact on the REPORT layout The PRECISION_ field is printed on the TITLE 4 of the Stratification report. When PRECISION_ size is increased to PL7, the PRECISION_ field value will be printed 4 positions to the right as shown below.
