Issue/Introduction
A CULPRIT report sometimes receives the following error message:
C750012 DECIMAL DIVIDE EXCEPTION IN REPORT
What is the cause and why is it only sometimes that it receives this error message?
Environment
Release: All supported releases.
Component: Culprit.
Resolution
This is a divide by zero abend. Review the 8 logic that was being executed in the CULPRIT program to see if there is a zero being passed to a variable field that is used in a divide computation.
For example:
018 COMPUTE GROSS-PREMIUM / ACTUAL-CLAIM X 100 * GROSS-MANUAL
In this case the ACTUAL-CLAIM value was zero. The resolution here is to find out why ACTUAL-CLAIM became zero. The divide by zero abend is a data exception that occurred in the output phase. By default in the profile, Culprit will tolerate 0 of these errors before it abends the job. This functionality and the action abend with dump is controlled by PROFILE options OE=,EE=,OE=,EE=,IE=,SE=,ME=,EE=,IE=,PE=, each one for a different step.
The error-action indicates the action to be taken in the event that one of the error thresholds described above is exceeded.
Expansion of Error-action:
IGNORE
STOP
ABEND
