Resolution

Check the screen map setting.
The global default setting is Enhanced. It can be changed in PARMLIB member TIRHE with the parameter TIMAPSEL.
To resolve the screen problem, change the screen map from Enhanced to Standard OR from Standard to Enhanced on the "Screen generator options" panel from the "Application System Construction Menu".
Regenerate the screen and dialog manager and retest.

Related article Gen Host Encyclopedia Screen Generation Standard and Enhanced Map options explains more about the 2 map settings and also in the Additional Information section it shows the difference in the generated code for each option. So, outside of the HE itself, that is another way to compare if the same map option has been used before and after the upgrade i.e. compare the generated screen code members for each version.
