Welcome to the forum!

First of all, have you found out what a S0C1 abend actually is? Have you looked on the forum for other discussions on this abend code?

In your previous records there was not data to cause this particular problem.

In your second set of data, and the quantity of it needn't be significant, but might be, data existed to cause the S0C1.

You probably have an OCCURS and have a subscript/index that has "gone wild".

Are you using compile option SSRANGE? This automatically checks that you don't exceed the defined boundaries of your tables.
