I've identified the issue with the CPYFRMIMPF.
The output file contains More than one End of Line character found.
On the CPYFRMIMPF, I was using a Record delimiter of *all.
I changed record delimiter from *all to *CR.
This eliminated the truncation error, CPIA083, Stream file copied to
object with truncated records.
I now have a valid output file which is used for confirm if the SFTP
was successful.
I look for 100% in the output file.

I'm still questioning why *ALL is not working properly.

The chosen implementation for the special value of *ALL for the Record delimiter (RCDDLM) parameter of the CPYFRMIMPF feature was to use the "First occurrence of any single or double character combination of carriage-return and line-feed" as the consistent EOR. That contrasts with the implementation for the special value of *ALL for the End Of Line Characters (ENDLINFMT) parameter of the CPYFRMSTMF feature. That would seem a likely suspect, but difficult to know for sure why, without knowing more about the environment and an example of actual data that can reproduce the error; e.g. the CCSID of the FROMSTMF, if the override [via a DtaAra] is in effect to force the import to use the v5r2 code-path, any changed command defaults, et al.

Seems possibly that /using the wrong tool for the job/ might describe the issue; i.e. if the stream record-data shown [with some blanks compressed] in the earlier quoted message is what is being copied. The DBF import request suggests that pipe-delimited data is being imported from the stream data into a described database file; there is of course, nothing like that in that stream of data. And if that is the data being copied, then seemingly the desire is instead, merely to do a simple record-copy with translation of the text stream record-data into database fixed-length record flat file record data, for which Copy From Stream File (CPYFRMSTMF) is the expected choice. Essentially, why is not the following request being made, instead?:
