I had this same issue a week or so back.
I thought *LOVAL should work on unkeyed files to set to BOF.
Guess I'm not the only one who ran into this.

subject: [V4R5] File in arrival sequence: Correct way to place pointer
at BOF
Hello,
I have a PF that is used as temporary storage for a cpyfrmimpf. It has no keys whatsoever and is truncated before each run (rmvm, addpfm). I reference that file in RPGLE without the K flag, because it has no keys.
What is the correct way to place the file pointer at BOF?
Neither setll *START, nor *LOVAL work: The compiler complains that these are invalid. Setting it to 1 makes the program compile. But this is now based on the assumption that there is always a RRN 1 in the file.
Did some Googling but did not find enlightenment. Hints are welcome!
:wq! PoC
