Hi, I recommend you to check the following.

See documentation URL:
www.microfocus.com/.../HRERRHRERR3D.html

Have you checked / debugged your program to ensure that no invalid data is used? What are the related data items defined as?

Do you have the CHECKNUM directive set?
This checks whether numeric fields contain valid data before performing operations on them. See documentation URL:
www.microfocus.com/.../HRCDRHCDIR1V.html

If you require further assistance then I recommend you to consider raising a support case where an engineer can assist you further.
