S0C4 occurs mainly due to protection exception. It means
when you trying to move a larger variable to a small
variable. Whereas S0C7 is data exception. It occurs when
you try to move a non numeric value to a Numeric variable.

Answer / sandeep

S0C4 occurs mainly due to protection exception. It means
when you are using subcripts for example my subsripts range
is 11 but I am trying 12 & your compiler option is ssrange
you got soc4 error.

Answer / sujan

Possible causes for the Abend SOC4 include:
1. Invalid address was referenced due to subscript error or
bad parameter passed
2. If we are moving a group move, then the receiving record
variable lenght is defined incorrectly, like the target
field size is less than the moving field size.
4. In Files, if we are trying to read or write a file which
was not open, then we can get SOC4.
5. Tried to goback in the SORT output procedure.

Answer / arun singh

GEnerelly soc-7 occours due to data mismatch it means if u
are placing numeric data in alphabetic field. It can be
resolved by coading PARM=TEST(SYM)
and you will get the local variable whose value you have
given wrong.

write logic:pgm=IGYCRCTL
pgm=IEWL/HEWL,PARM=(SSRANGE,NONSSRANGE)are compiler options
which must be coaded in parm parameter.
