Resolution
The Sysout Selection List XCODE is field is populated with a non-zero exception condition that occurred in the job that created a report collected by View.
In the SARSTC task is an optional exception code table, found in //SARXCTAB DD ....
The contents of the table defines as to how exception code processing is handled.
If there is no //SARXCTAB DD defined, the default used for exception condition processing is "/ * LAST".
"/* LAST" means that the XCODE field would reflect the last non-zero condition occurring in the job generating the report.
Many clients have found a setting of "/* HIGH" to be useful, as it would show the highest non-zero condition encountered in the job.
If there are instances where the presentation of an exception code is conditional, that would be placed in the SARXCTAB table as well.
