I'm using DSPJRN to create an outfile.  The DSPJRN command looks like this:

DSPJRN JRN(JOURNAL) FILE((FILE1)) RCVRNG(*CURCHAIN) OUTPUT(*OUTFILE) 
OUTFILFMT(*TYPE5) OUTFILE(QTEMP/WRKJRN) ENTDTALEN(*CALC)

The record length of the journaled file FILE1 is 1266.  Why is the 
Entry-Specific data field JOESD in outfile WRKJRN created with length 1270?  It 
appears that there are 4 blank characters at the end of this field for each 
'UB', 'UP', and 'PT' entries for this adds/changes made to FILE1 in outfile 
WRKJRN.
