Pay attention to that fill character and "significance."

Does the customer really want something like 00000$10245670 ?
Because with EDMK and the mask you have specified that is pretty much how this
is going to work (as least the first three looks I took at this trying to
figure out why the edit mask was written the way it is).

Just a try of the top of my head ...
MVC OUTPUT(15),=X'F0202020202020202020202020202120'
EDMK OUTPUT(15),NUMBER
The first character in the output field is the "fill" character. In this case
it's a C'0'. So even though all the x'20' characters prior to the x'21' get replaced by
fill, it's zero anyhow. The only difference between ED and EDMK is pointing R1 to the
first significant digit.

Subject: edmk instruction
I have a field PL7 that contains a number (dollar amount) and I have to output
that amount into a CL15 output field. The customer would like for the
remaining characters other than the digits for the amount to be zeros, i.e.,
000000000012391. I am trying to code a EDMK pattern with no success, has
anyone ever completed such a task?
