COBCH0214 VALUE too long for data item or has too many decimal positions

The value you have specified in a VALUE clause is too big or has too many decimal places, to fit in the data item. For example, a declaration such as PIC 99 VALUE 123, where 123 is too large to fit into the receiving field without truncation.

Resolution:

Alter your code so that the data item is large enough to receive the value that is to be placed in it.
