maxNumericDigits

When you generate a COBOL program, the maxNumericDigits build descriptor option specifies the size of numeric fields. Generally, COBOL applications use 31 digit numeric fields. However, if your compiler only supports a maximum of 18 digits, you must specify this build descriptor option with a value of 18.

Values

31 (the default value)
Sets the numeric fields to 31 digits.
18
Sets the maximum size for numeric fields to 18 digits.
