Hi Mark

I did this once, lemme see if I remember the steps...

Procedure Interfaces are supposed to be the new version of the PLIST.  You
should be able to bracket the RPG code with Procedure specs, add PI and PR
definitions in place of the PLIST, re-compile the RPG code as a module, and
bind that module into a service program (well you don't have to do the service
program, but I like it).

You'll have to change your CLLE to use the CALLPRC command where it now does a
CALL, create a CLLE module from the source, and do a CRTPGM with the CLLE
module, referencing the new service program.
