Strange issue with CMD parameter length

Group,

I've been having some very strange problems with a command I'm making...

This is the source:

/* *_> CNLLSTSPLF SRCFILE(@2/@1) SRCMBR(@3) */
/* *_> CRTCMD CMD(@5/@4) + */
/* *_> PGM(*LIBL/@4) + */
/* *_> SRCFILE(@2/@1) + */
/* *_> SRCMBR(@3) + */
/* *_> AUT(*LIBCRTAUT) */

CMD PROMPT('CRT/UPD/link/rollout document')

PARM KWD(DOCMGR) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10) MIN(1) +
PROMPT('Document main group')
PARM KWD(DOCSGR) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10) MIN(1) +
PROMPT('Document subgroup')
PARM KWD(DOCNAM) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(256) MIN(1) +
PROMPT('Document name')
PARM KWD(DOCTYP) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10) MIN(1) +
PROMPT('Document type')
PARM KWD(DATTIM) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(19) MIN(1) +
PROMPT('Date and time last update')

When I compile this command, and prompt it from the command line, the last
parameter is shown as 25 characters long.

If I change it to 18, it is still shown as 25 long, but when I reduce the
length further to 17, it is shown correctly as 17.

The same happens when I for instance change the DOCTYP parameter to
LEN(19): it will be 25 on screen.

Is there any special reason why the length of the parameter is rounded up?

Thanks,
