Can you use OCCURS in a BMS map? If you do, what are the
issues related with its use?

Answer Posted / devang

yes, we can use occurs in BMS maps.

For doing so one needs to override the symbolic map(cpy
book) for the map in question.

The input and output field of the copy book have to be
redefined with wanted index sizes which can inturn be
referenced in the application program.
