  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF that corrects this APAR.       *
  ****************************************************************
  1. The program which processes the panel input saves the old
  values of the input prior to processing new input. The address
  where the old panel input is saved is stored in the program's
  working storage. The program logic does not correcly initialize
  this address, but sets it correctly when input values are
  changed. This results in an invalid value for this address if
  you get to the panel and enter CANCEL without making changes,
  leading to the S0C1.
  2. Mis-spelling in the panel text.
  3. Field-level help was defined on a panel that didn't need it.
  4. Field-level help was defined on a panel that didn't need it.
  5. The Global SYSOUT value is not defined as required in the
  panel, but is required.
  6. CANCEL processing for this panel should go back to the prior
  panel. Instead, it causes the panel input to be processed.
  7. CANCEL or END processing for this panel should go back to
  the prior panel. Instead, it goes back to the main panel.
  

Problem conclusion

• 1. The program has been modified to correctly initialize
  working storage.
  2. The spelling has been corrected.
  3. The field level help definition was removed from the panel.
  4. The field level help definition was removed from the panel.
  5. The Global SYSOUT value has been marked as required.
  6. CANCEL processing for this panel has been corrected.
  7. CANCEL and END processing for this panel has been corrected.
