fact
Profile and Password Management (PPM)

symptom
Profile and Password Management (PPM) is allowing access to the Security screen to change passwords via a menu option. 

symptom
CALL PSSECURE/ZPCL10 brings up the password change screen but "days till password change" is incorrect.  It always says zero (0).

cause
When calling the command directly (as opposed to using the menu options) the programs that interpret the remaining days are not available.

fix
This is normal.  The number of days till password change is available/correct when using the menu option for this purpose within Profile and Password Management (PPM).
