Answer / bhavani

When we retrieve data from a nullable field, we need to
have a null indicator declared in the working storage.

WS-NULL-INDICATOR s9(04) comp

And after you have fetched the value for that column,

we need to check the value of the null indicator.

It can have the following values

-2 - Exceptional condition
-1 - Null Value is present in that field
0 - Not null
