Data validation for file and formatting the output - cobol

I'm trying to code a program to determine if different kinds of errors appear in a given file. I'm going to post my entire code, because I honestly have no idea where I'm going wrong here. It's just abending on me. The data validation is 2100-error-checking.

where * are under errors in the data. And letters show what errors are found.

In your latest version, you have made a group item (DATE-DUE) but you have not adjusted the level-numbers for the other date fields which are subordinate to it. I have made those three level 10. To use SYSIN data to be convenient for me, I added a 32-byte FILLER to the end of the input record.
I compile, gets an RC/CC of 4, so the linkedit/binder runs.
I used this data from your other question:
VC 10045380051005ABC ELECTRONICS 00001298
VC 050926XYZ COMPANY 00R00549
VT 12348760051115QUALITY ASSURANCE CO 00400053
VC A14BCF80051201 00100930
And got this output, with no abend:
VENDOR RECORD VALIDATION PAGE 1
RC VENDOR # DATE DUE VENDOR NAME AMOUNT DUE -- ERROR CODES--
VC 10045380 051005 ABC ELECTRONICS 000,012.98

******** *************** ********
VALID RECORDS: 01 INVALID RECORDS: 03
I have pasted the data from your other question.
Note, if your actual data is incorrect, you may get an abend with the amount field.
Note also what has happened to the R in the amount field. You haven't validated that for NUMERIC.
I have now compiled and run your program with the two corrections (the VALUE clauses for the two counts, and the END-READ). Here is the output:
VENDOR RECORD VALIDATION PAGE 1
RC VENDOR # DATE DUE VENDOR NAME AMOUNT DUE -- ERROR CODES--
VC 10045380 051005 ABC ELECTRONICS 000,01298

I used a fixed-length file, as I don't have access to your actual file, which must be variable-length (it is good to be explicit in the FD, then you don't get those I-informational messages at the end of your compile).
You still have some things to sort out, but the program is running and producing output. If you make those code changes and still have problems, then it is your file that is in error.
You have a very frustrating problem which seems to be down to the "environment". You need to be able to see your compile listings. If the compile fails (RC/CC above 4) then your linkedit/binder step won't run, and you won't get a new executable program. I think that is your problem, but you need help from your tutor to sort out how to find the compile listing and confirm that there are no errors.
I have not used Rational Developer and don't know if you are using zPDT or are compiling on the Mainframe or how you'd look at the compiler output in either case from your Rational Developer session.
Your code is basically OK for a learner, and probably has been for a couple of days. You have been struggling with a problem not directly to do with the code, but to do with not knowing your program had compile errors. Basically, except for a couple of typos, it was there.
When you do get it running in your environment, update your Code Review question please.
A really good thing to know is what compile produced the version of the program that you ran, whether or not it abended.
You can display the date and time that the program was compiled:
WORKING-STORAGE SECTION.
01 W-WHEN-COMPILED PIC X(8)BX(8).
...
Before doing anything else, other than identifying that it is the first time in a CALLed sub-program, something like this:
MOVE WHEN-COMPILED TO W-WHEN-COMPILED
DISPLAY
"Program XXXXXXXX compiled on "
W-WHEN-COMPILED
The output you get will be the date/time from the actual compile of that program, matching exactly to the date/time on the compile listing.
I've used code like that, and recommended it to others, for over 30 years, and it has saved shed-loads of time.
There is also an intrinsic FUNCTION, WHEN-COMPILED. This is the same, but with a four-digit year. Since for the forseeable future the CC in the year will be 20 you can chose which one to do. Both are resolved at compile-time, and impact on run-time will be minimal.
You have no END-READ. This gives you an E-level diagnostic from the compile, a Return-Code/Condition-Code of 8, and you linkedit/binder step following probably hasn't run (have a look at the COND for the step in file 2 of the spool for your job).
Here is your code as a reminder:
PERFORM UNTIL END-OF-FILE = "YES"
READ DATVAL02
AT END
MOVE "YES" TO END-OF-FILE
NOT AT END
PERFORM 2100-ERROR-ROUTINE
IF ERROR-FLAG = "YES"
PERFORM 2500-PROCESS
PERFORM 3000-PROCESS
END-IF
IF ERROR-FLAG = "NO"
PERFORM 2500-PROCESS
END-IF
END-PERFORM.
Here is what it could look like with the END-READ:
PERFORM UNTIL END-OF-FILE = "YES"
READ DATVAL02
AT END
MOVE "YES" TO END-OF-FILE
NOT AT END
PERFORM 2100-ERROR-ROUTINE
IF ERROR-FLAG = "YES"
PERFORM 2500-PROCESS
PERFORM 3000-PROCESS
END-IF
IF ERROR-FLAG = "NO"
PERFORM 2500-PROCESS
END-IF
END-READ
END-PERFORM
Since no new program has been linked, you are running the old program still and getting the old error still.
You are adding to non-binary fields which you have not given an initial value.
05 VALID-RECORDS PIC S99.
05 INVALID-RECORDS PIC S99.
IF ERROR-FLAG = "YES"
ADD 1 TO INVALID-RECORDS
END-IF.
IF ERROR-FLAG = "NO"
ADD 1 TO VALID-RECORDS
END-IF.
Without an initial value (either from a VALUE clause, or a MOVE or even the dread INITIALIZE), the value is undefined and is unlikely to be valid for a zoned-decimal field, so S0C7.
Have a look at this: https://stackoverflow.com/a/17102485/1927206 to see if you can work out from that exactly where it is failing in your program.

How do I fix a program bypass that is not working?

I have a program that works perfectly except when reading in the SEQ file it is suppose to skip/bypass the record entirely then move on to the next one in the file. It is suppose to bypass the input file if the student has graduated (skip Graduation Status if equal to 'Y'). Bypass if Class Standing is anything other than '1' or '2'. Lastly, bypass if Major is not 'DIG', 'NES', or 'PGM'. I have a Bypass in the program under 120-CHECK-BYPASS. but it is not sorting/stopping any records from processing. How do I fix this?

I am still new to COBOL and have been working on a project for school for almost a week now. I am running OpenCobol 1.1.

The compiler has a broken parser. It is broken because of a coding error (still a compiler bug). In cases like this you only have the chance to either spot the error or - much better - use a newer version.
I've just put your code in an online compiler using the last release of the compiler: GnuCOBOL 2.2. I highly suggest to upgrade to at least this version.
See your code here - I've just added a minimal header and end.
Then click on "Execute" and you compile it online, leading to the following error messages:
main.cobc: 27: error: duplicate PICTURE clause
main.cobc: 27: error: duplicate VALUE clause
main.cobc: 64: error: a Z or * which is after the decimal point cannot follow 9
If you check the line 27 in this program you see
05 Pic X(29) Value "Stomper &" &
" Wombat's Emporium" *> <<- missing period
05 Pic X(6) Value "Page:".
Fixed code is also available.

Compiler Thinks Im Refering to Nonexistent Paragraph or Section

I am getting errors concerning my procedure division in one of my assignments for class. It is a COBOL Program that is supposed to keep a running total of the average height and weight of applicants, number of brown-eyed applicants, number of male applicants, and number of female applicants. Also the program is supposed to print the info of applicants who meet a specific set of requirements but i'm getting errors for almost all of my perform statements
COBCH0034 Operand operand should be numeric
A numeric value is required in this context, and you have specified a nonnumeric value.
COBCH0014 Invalid operand
The operand you have specified is in some way incorrect, and cannot be processed by your COBOL system. For example, you might have specified a negative integer where only positive integers are allowed

end program ELECTRA-MODELING-AGENCY.
So you have several things that are going wrong here. Let me detail a few of them and give you some hints to fix them.
You are using periods to end statements, this is awful and bad when you mix it with some of the newer (and by newer, i mean only 30 years old) style of statements, like inline perform and read/at end/not at end/end-read.
Instead of this:
PERFORM UNTIL EOF = 'Y'
READ INPUT-FILE
AT END MOVE 'Y' TO EOF
NOT AT END
PERFORM 200-HEADING.
PERFORM 200-AVG-HEIGHT.
PERFORM 200-AVG-WEIGHT.
PERFORM 200-BROWN-EYED-APPS.
PERFORM 200-MALE-APPS.
PERFORM 200-FEMALE-APPS.
PERFORM 200-MALE-DETAIL-LINE.
PERFORM 200-FEMALE-DETAIL-LINE.
CLOSE INPUT-FILE, OUTPUT-FILE.
STOP RUN.
You need something like this:
PERFORM UNTIL EOF = 'Y' <--- This is better as an 88 level
READ INPUT-FILE
AT END MOVE 'Y' TO EOF
NOT AT END
PERFORM SOMETHING <--- You need to accumulate you data here
END-READ
END-PERFORM
PERFORM 200-HEADING
PERFORM 200-AVG-HEIGHT
PERFORM 200-AVG-WEIGHT
PERFORM 200-BROWN-EYED-APPS
PERFORM 200-MALE-APPS
PERFORM 200-FEMALE-APPS
PERFORM 200-MALE-DETAIL-LINE
PERFORM 200-FEMALE-DETAIL-LINE
CLOSE INPUT-FILE, OUTPUT-FILE
STOP RUN. <--- This is the only period you need
<--- In your mainline
You can not do this:
200-AVG-HEIGHT.
IF NOT AT END <--- NOT AT END and AT END only work
<--- in the context of a READ statement
ADD APPLICANTS-HEIGHT TO AVERAGE-HEIGHT
ELSE AT END
DIVIDE AVERAGE-HEIGHT BY 21.
WRITE OUTPUT-REC FROM SUMMARY-LINE-01.
While you are looping through the file, accumulate the total height by adding each applicants to APPLICANTS-HEIGHT and adding 1 to your APPLICANTS-COUNT. When you are ready to do your summary line for height, do this:
200-AVG-HEIGHT.
DIVIDE APPLICANTS-HEIGHT BY APPLICANTS-COUNT
WRITE OUTPUT-REC FROM SUMMARY-LINE-01
. <---- Again, you only need a single period to end a paragraph
In all of your paragraphs, you are trying to accumulate your data AND write your summary line. This does not work. See the perform loop above where I have the "Perform Something To Accumulate your data", this is the paragraph you want to put all of your code that adds up every applicant. You need separate paragraphs, as you have, to write the summary lines.
So this should happen every record:
200-MALE-DETAIL-LINE.
IF APPLICANTS-HAIR-CODE = 1
IF APPLICANTS-EYE-CODE = 1
IF APPLICANTS-GENDER = M
IF APPLICANTS-HEIGHT >= 72
IF 185 <= APPLICANTS-WEIGHT <= 200
ELSE CONTINUE. <--- you are doing nothing here
WRITE OUTPUT-REC FROM 01 DETAIL-LINE.
It is better written like this:
200-MALE-DETAIL-LINE.
IF APPLICANTS-HAIR-CODE = 1
AND APPLICANTS-EYE-CODE = 1
AND APPLICANTS-GENDER = M
AND APPLICANTS-HEIGHT >= 72
AND (185 <= APPLICANTS-WEIGHT <= 200)
WRITE OUTPUT-REC FROM 01-DETAIL-LINE
END-IF
That should get you going. You will need to apply these hints to all the other paragraphs. In brief, your program should generally look like this:
Open Files
Perform until EOF
Read a-record
not at end
Perform Do-Detail-Lines
at end
Set EOF to true
End-Read
End-Perform
Perform Do-Summary-Lines
Close files
Stop Run.
Do-Detail-Lines.
...add up all the things you are averaging and counting...
...populate detail line...
write output-rec from detail-line
.
Do-Summary-Lines.
...calculate all averages...
...populate summary line...
write output-red from summary-line
...repeat as needed for other summary-lines...
.
Happy coding :-)

Not a uniquely defined Name?

I keep getting the error
"LOWMID-COMMISSION-CTR" was not a uniquely defined name. The definition
to be used could not be determined from the context.
And similar on all of my counters. I have no idea where I'm going wrong here, how is it not a uniquely defined name when it is clearly in the WORKING-STORAGE SECTION? Do I put it somewhere else so that it's a uniquely defined name? Below I have showed where I defined my counters, and where the counters are used.

The input file looks like this
307662099KRAlexander Y2NES005017
Basically certain files won't meet the requirements and we are just suppose to just skip over them. This is an example of the file that we don't want to write to the output file and skip over. I apologize if I explained this poorly but I am really struggling with COBOL.
Your 200- paragraph needs to do something like this:
IF NOT ( <condition-for-skipping )
PERFORM PROCESS-THIS-RECORD
ELSE
PERFORM IGNORE-THIS-RECORD
END-IF
You can swap the conditions easily
IF ( <condition-for-skipping )
PERFORM IGNORE-THIS-RECORD
ELSE
PERFORM PROCESS-THIS-RECORD
END-IF
All the stuff you have in the 200- paragraph currently, you put in to a new paragrpah PROCESS-THIS-RECORD. You should have a new paragraph IGNORE-THIS-RECORD. If nothing else, it can count the records which are ignored. Then if you count the records which are processed, and count the input records, at the end you can check that everything is either processed or ignored.
You should check file-statuses. It is good to use scope-delimiters (like the END-IF) and keep full-stops/periods to a minimum.
88s are good to use for conditions. Saves lots of literals hanging about to make maintenance more complex.
