Answer / guest1

In the above answer the group contains a PIC clause. It
wrong. Group item should not contain any PIC clause.
01 ws-in-alpha pic x(7).
01 ws-in-numeric redefines ws-in-alpha.
05 ws-data pic 9(7)v99.

01 ws-actual-data pic s9(7)v99 comp-3.

In procedure division,

Answer / mvramesh

01 ws-in-data Pic X(7)
05 ws-numeric Pic x (4) value '3000'
05 ws-filler Pic x (1) value '.'
05 ws-decimial pic x (2) value '00'

01 WS-Temp-CHAR PIC X(6)
05 ws-num Pic x (4)
05 ws-dec Pic x (2)

01 WS-TEMP-NUM redefines WS-Temp-char pic 9(4)V9(2)

01 WS-OUT-Data PIC S9(7)V9(2) comp-3

move ws-numeric to ws-num
move ws-decimal to ws-dec

move ws-temp-num to WS-OUT-data

here is the logic, there may be syntax errors. need to modify based on the format of input data.
