IN OTHER WORDS, POS 78-79 OF THE R20 RECORD MUST SHOW A NUMERIC FIGURE WHICH EQUALS THE NUMBER OF FOLLOWING R21 RECORDS. IF ONE R21 RECORD FOLLOWS THE R20 RECORD, POS 78-79 WOULD BE "01", E.G. IF THE FILER SPACE FILLS THIS ELEMENT BUT TRANSMITS AN R21 RECORD, THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT (THE 'INVALID' PART OF THE NARRATIVE). IF THE FILER TRANSMITS A FIGURE GREATER THAN '10', THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO RESULT (THE 'EXCESS' PART OF THE MESSAGE). NOTE: IF THE ENTRY IS AN AGGREGATE RECON, AND NO R21 RECORDS ARE TRANSMITTED, THE FILER MUST STILL SHOW '00' IN POS 78-79 OF EACH R20 RECORD.
