Usually, Sxxx abends are for system code, user abend for application
code. You can of course code an SD37 abend and confuse everybody.

You also have to watch out for the Sxyy Abend Codes that are supposed to belong to user SVCs (SVC 200 - 255 [yy=c8-ff]) but IBM has Hijacked for non-User-SVCx Purposes. The only valid use I can name is Fyy for the SVC-yy undefined case (but that still leaves 15 of the 16 possible codes for the user to use unless it is one of the IBM hijacked Abend Codes in which case the user either needs to not use that SVC-Number or only use those ABEND Codes IBM has not invalidly appropriated).
