Right, the DDS values list is only picked up if you reference the database field in display file DDS. RPG, SQL, etc., are completely unaware of it. I got bitten by this 30 years ago on the S/38, and it’s still true today.

would NOT allow other values to be entered for that field."
Unfortunately, your understanding is not correct.
The only way to enforce this is with constraints.
