  ****************************************************************
  Calls to IMS to query/load the QSN table use buffers without
  MRQ and QCF prefixes. On retturn checks for IMS crash are made
  in prefix areas- these are missing with query/load QSN table.
  The IMS crashes checks should be skiipped for QSN functions.
  Some programs were compiled with old macros and fields in QSN
  table are not correct after updating the table using the panels.
  

Problem conclusion

• Programs are changed and compiled with correct macros.
  

Temporary fix
