Yes, there is a bug with the MOVE verb of numeric edited types.

01 E-ZAHL PIC ZZZ.99.
01 ZAHL   PIC ZZZ.99.
...
* This move works as expected
MOVE 123.45 TO E-ZAHL
* This move does NOT work properly
MOVE E-ZAHL TO ZAHL.

I will try to fix this bug before TC version 0.64 is released.

As a temporary fix, avoid moves between edited types.

Example:
...
05 E-ZAHL PIC 999V99.
05 ZAHL   PIC ZZZ.99.
...
ACCEPT E-ZAHL.
MOVE   E-ZAHL TO ZAHL.

Hope this helps.
