HI GUPTA

AEI9 - mapfail error
the reason is
Occurs if the data to be mapped has a length of zero

that is, if no data entered on the screen & the field is set(FSET) ,if a receive is issued we get this abend

Map fail error occurs if the length of the unprotected fields in the map is zero and it is recieved by the CICS application program

Hi All,

I am also getting AEI9 - mapfail error.

My problem scenario is as follows:
I wanted to tackle the condition where user is pressing ENTER(implies to RECEIVE MAP) to fetch the account details without entering key of information. In such scenario I wants to send the first MAP with message "Enter account number" so for doing this I am checking the length of EIBCALEN, if its zero than I wanted to throw the first map with message. But I am getting AE19 error.
How will I tackle this.....??

What does you code look like -- the PROCEDURE DIVISION and that IF statement with the SEND MAP?

yes..I am transferring the control to other program(one which will fetch the data) if I got some data in account number...else if there is no data in account number that I am sending message saying" enter account number"

All you need to do is define a static (no label) DFHMDF to include FSET in the ATTRB parameter.
