Answer Wiki:
LDA will be CHAR type Data Area.
You can move the Decimal data to LDA, But, It will be stored in Character format.
When You are retrieving Data you will need to convert it back to Decimal data type.

The LDA is an unstructured block of bytes. It appears as if it was defined as *CHAR (2000).
As of V5R4, CL can use data structure definitions to define subfields over a LDA of any valid data type.
