ICE611A
TOTAL FOR {(p,m,f)|(VLEN)} OVERFLOWED nn DECIMAL DIGITS

Explanation

Critical. The total for the indicated ON(p,m,f) or ON(VLEN) field (STATS or DISPLAY) exceeded the number of digits (nn) allowed for it. nn is 31 for STATS, or 15 or 31 for DISPLAY, depending on the number of digits allowed for the total.

System action

This operation is terminated.

For a STATS operator, asterisks are printed in ICE648I messages for the average and total for this field.

For a DISPLAY operator, asterisks are printed for this field in any BAVERAGE, BTOTAL, AVERAGE, or TOTAL lines requested.

Programmer response

If nn is 15, specify an Ndd or Udd formatting item large enough to prevent overflow of the total (that is, use an appropriate Ndd or Udd value between 16 and 31).

If nn is 31 and you need the average or total for this field, use the STATS or DISPLAY operator for subsets of the data set that do not cause the total to overflow. Use the statistics for the subsets to determine the needed statistics for the field.
