9 times out of 10, your problem is caused by the fact that your variables are 
defined as zoned in the RPG program. In CL, all numeric variable are packed. So 
one solution is to make sure that the variables are defined as packed in the 
RPG program.

Hi All,

Did anyone ever run into problems when sending parameters from an RPG 
program to a CL program using a PLIST? In my PLIST I have two numeric 
fields (P10PRD 2,0 and P10YR 4,0). I keep getting a Decimal-Data Error.

Message . . . . :   Decimal-data error occurred (C G D F).  
  
Cause . . . . . :   RPG procedure TMX210B1 in program JACOSTA/TMX210B1 
found a
  decimal-data error at statement *INIT. A packed or zoned value does not  
 
  contain valid numeric data.  A digit and/or sign is not valid.
