How about,

C                       ChkForErr       BegSR

  * Initialize routine
C                       Eval    ErrorID = *Blanks
                                 
  * Do some testing & branch to error section when required
C                                                     SELECT
C                       Condition1          WHENNE Valid
C                       Eval    ErrorID = ErrorID1
C                       Condition2          WHENNE Valid
C                       Eval    ErrorID =  ErrorID2
C                                                        _      
C                                                        _ 
C                                                     OTHER
  *  garbage process
C                                                     ENDSL

C                                                     IF              
(ErrorID = *Blanks)
  * Add a whole bunch of other tests here


  * Error Section
C                       ELSE
C                       Eval    DspErrInd = *On
  *    <add additional common error handling code here)
C                       Endif

C                       EndSR

P.S. I would allow all errors to be caught in one pass and process
accordingly, but the above example has used your logic.
