Level 88 variables which are conditional variables, will
have values which will be either true or false.
Like if you have condition that at the end of file set a
flag to true then you can declare level 88 variable which
will be set to true or will have a value 'Y'(declared value
for the variable) as soon as the file does not have any more
records.

05 WS-FLAG
88 WS-END_OF_FIlE Value 'Y'
88 WS-NOT_END_OF_FILE Value 'N'

Here when you say set WS-FLAG to true then it will
automatically get value 'Y', which shows end of the file.
