Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:                                              *
  * Users who build MFS files in Application Discovery Build     *
  * Client.                                                      *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * The AD Cobol compiler got errors in the IMS DFLD statement   *
  * call: Error [1043] : Syntax Error: 'Position attribute is    *
  * Missing'                                                     *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  * Upgrade to Application Discovery version 6.2.0.              *
  ****************************************************************
  

Problem conclusion

• Fixed in code, by accepting to call DFLD statement without the
  'POS' parameter. MFS map files which contain an IMS DFLD
  statement call without the 'POS' parameter will not give Error
  [1043] : Syntax Error: 'Position attribute is Missing'.
  

Temporary fix
