ACR Warning #UFI023W

The SYSOUT message #UFI023W is an ACR/Summary warning that the number of records of an input source exceeded the specified amount of resources that the input should contain. 

General message syntax:

JOB-ID FILE FILE-ID CONTAINS MORE THAN NNN RECORDS. PROCESSING THE NNN RECORDS REQUESTED

Sample full message:

#UFI023W: ACRMSGS /EXAMPLE /   FILE SAMPLE     CONTAINS MORE THAN 01000 RECORDS. PROCESSING THE 01000 RECORDS REQUESTED.

Causes for #UFI023W 

The warning will occur when the number of records of an input source exceeded the specified amount of resources that the input should contain.

There are two reasons this message would occur:

Length of input is longer than expected

While processing within most access modes in ACR/Summary, ACR will ask how many records are expected in the input source. If your input source is exceeded the maximum value, then your input source may have unexpected extra data within it, or has naturally grown to a point that the previously specified value is now too small. 

Expected behavior to increase processing speed

This message will display if the number of records is intentionally set smaller than the actual size of the input source in order to decrease processing time. This is most common when extracting report header information without needing to capture the rest of a lengthy report.

Resolutions for #UFI023W 

An adjustment of the number of records to extract will need to be performed.
