First calculated records in record-line/output-line becomes BLANK in output in COBOL

167 views Asked by At

My calculations are correct. But the output file's ONLY first calculated record becomes as BLANK and affects all the records.

In the output file [A5-SalaryReport-5A.out], you may see the first record's position comes BLANK.

THIS IS MY INPUT FILE [A5.dat]

Rick Smith On BEST ANSWER

The problem I see is that the correct value for ws-position shows on the next record; this happens because ws-calc-position is determined after the line is printed. This caused a blank on the first record and an incorrect value on the following print lines.

I suggest moving the code for determining ws-calc-position to just before it is needed. 120-process-lines and 220-process-rpt-lines incorporates those suggestions.

The IF code should not include AND, as expressed originally. It causes some values to be missed, where in-yrs-serv is 15, 07, or 02. Those particular values caused (or would cause) the previously determined position to appear in the output. That change has be made below.

Also, this line

         05 ws-emp-name        pic 9(15).

should be

         05 ws-emp-name        pic x(15).
