----When I debug I get N1 = 64 which is incorrect which ideally should

have

been 48 as per current decrypted value

Based on your dumped data, change this statement:

eval outrec = %trimr(record);

...to this:

eval outrec = %trimr(%trimr(record):x'10');

RCDLEN = 500 is incorrect then what should be correct length on fly so
that i can set it as per exact decrypted value of record field which
should not contain any garbage value in it?

Åcommand = 'CRTPF FILE(RISHI/TESTFILE) RCDLEN(' + %char(N1) + ')';

Sincerely,
