Enterprise COBOL V6R4 - IGZPROUT - Add "SERVICE" information in report

Hi, IBM Enterprise COBOL V6R4 allows you to produce a report of all subroutines called by dynamic call. We would like the information introduced by the SERVICE compilation option to be included in the IGZPROUT report. This would meet one of our legal obligations to ensure the traceability of processing. Currently this is ensured by specific code. Information about the main program should also be included in the IGZPROUT report. As a reminder, we also asked that the SERVICE information be accessible to the program through a special register: https://ibm-z-software-portal.ideas.ibm.com/ideas/COBOLVUE-I-156
