The problem is that UPDATE, in rpgle, supports %fields. However WRITE does not. Therefore you have to write out the whole buffer. And, if you never initialized those fields it will write out low values.
Dump WRITE, adopt SQL's INSERT instead.

An alternative might be to use EXCEPT and O specifications, referring to the subset of the fields actually being written.
