Issue/Introduction

If the APAS Insight Shared Parameter module was generated with a version of Natural prior to Natural v8.2.3 and it is linked with the Natural v8.2.3 Shared nucleus, the following error occurs :

Resolution

Starting with Natural v8.2.3, the Natural SYSERR error messages are contained in the Natural INPL data set and loaded along with the other Natural programming objects. Due to the change in the Natural v8.2.3 INPL utility modules to handle SYSERR messages, the APAS Shared parameter module must be reassembled and linked using the Natural v8.2.3 Source library. The Natural v8.2.3 Shared nucleus must then be relinked to include the newly regenerated APAS Shared parameter module.
