Issue/Introduction

What is the solution to the following error message:

C1G0140S  ENDEVOR - BC1PSMGR ABENDED CODE=U0001
ELEMENT RECORD WAS NOT FOUND FOR ELEMENT IN ENV: 
         ENV1 SYS: SYS1 SBS: SUBSYS1 STAGE X

Resolution

The problem is the record format.  Go the the type definition for the type you are having a problem:

CURRENT ENV:  ENV1       STAGE ID:  1   SYSTEM:  SYS1    TYPE:  COBOL
NEXT ENV   :  ENV1       STAGE ID:  2   SYSTEM:  SYS1    TYPE:  COBOL

                                                        LVLS TO CONSOL      50

To fix this problem change the following:

from:
     ELE RECFM(N/F/V) ===> N
to:
     ELE RECFM(N/F/V) ===> V

you can also increase the record length of the file. Ensure that the Type Definition in other stages match.
