Like many of the others we do a similar thing where I work. Our collectors don't have the time to hunt the keyboard for various alpha keys while discussing a customers bill on the phone. So we try to centralize movement to the ten-key pad. It leave one hand free for other things while they talk through their headsets.
Same thing for data entry.

I don't know why someone would have thought that Y equals 1 and N equals 2 
that's just odd to me.
The code is confusing enough to make me just want to say, if they entered a Y 
exit, if they entered a N continue or whatever.
That's job security right there!

n my 25 years in Pick I have never seen a construction like this to test for Y
r N or whatever it's doing.
hat is this doing?  What is this 1]2 and<1,1>  doing ?  Why do I need this?

297: CHECK:   PRINT @(0,17): "Are the problem codes correct (Y/N)? " :
298:          INPUT ANSWER
299:          LOCATE ANSWER IN '�Y�N�1�2'<1,1>  SETTING TEST ELSE PRINT BELL
300:          LOCATE ANSWER IN '�Y�1'<1,1>  SETTING TEST ELSE
301:             PRINT @(0,13):CLEAR.REST.SCREEN ; GOTO ENTER.PROBLEM.CODES
