You can specify the RETURNING phrase on calls to 
ILE procedures that return a value. If you specify the 
RETURNING phrase on a CALL to a COBOL subprogram: 

The called subprogram must specify the RETURNING 
phrase on its PROCEDURE DIVISION header. 

Identifier-4 and the corresponding PROCEDURE DIVISION 
RETURNING identifier in the target program must have the 
same number of character positions and must be of the same 
USAGE and SIGN clause and category
