The joblog for QZDASOINIT shows

MCH37601 From module QZDACRTP to module QZDACRTP

Message .. pointer not set for location referenced

I have checked QUSER profile, etc. and that seems OK.

Generally MCH37601 relates to incorrect parameters being passed but in this
instance it is an OS/400 problem. I believe that I have installed all the
correct PTFs but of course I may have missed something. Any ideas?

Thanks for your help again.

There is no such message as MCH37601 so I presume it is MCH3601. That generally indicates a coding defect. Trying to reference a pointer that is not set. Since this is in IBM code that is an APAR condition (unless caused by user-written code neglecting to pass in a parameter etc.) in which case you should ensure you are current on PTFs, search the IBM Support database for MSGMCH3601 and QZDACRTP, and if no resolution then open a PMR.
