Can occur on Receive command.
This occurs when no usable data is transmitted or is
unformatted.
This Occurs when operator used a PA or CLEAR key
Can occurs when operator pressed enter or PF key when no
field defiend in MDT is set on
You can use a HANDLE command to check for mapfail
Please add and correct if required.

Answer / ak
MAPFAIL occurs on a RECEIVE MAP if the operator has used the CLEAR key or one of the PA keys. It also occurs if the operator uses ENTER or a PF key from a screen where:
No fields defined in the map have the modified data tag set on (this means the operator did not key anything and you did not send any fields with the tags already set, so that no data is returned on the read), and
The cursor was not left in a field defined in the map and named, or the map did not specify CURSLOC=YES
