Try this (untested)

     D SysDate         S               D   Inz(*Sys)

     D RealDate        S               D

     C     *ISO          Test(DE)                 NumField
     C                   If        %Error
     C                   Move      SysDate       RealDate
     C                   Else
     C     *ISO          Move      NumField      RealDate
