SORT key %1 in variable portion of record. Ignored.

30

Cause . . . . . : You have specified a SORT key all or part of which lies in the variant part of the record. This means that some records for the file could have incomplete SORT keys. COBOL SORT requires that every SORT record must have a complete key.

Recovery . . . : Change the SORT statement so that all keys are entirely contained within the fixed portion of the record.
