The numerics need to be 3.0 decimal.

In you're example, the numeric constants are actually being passed as 15.5
and the result parm would be wrong as it needs to be 3.0 decimal as well.

Rather than define the extra variables, you could use a command fronted to
the API instead.  It makes QCLSCAN easier to code and read in CL.
