I'm working in the MF environment,
While generating the COBOL code I get this error:
"Error: 990000 an internal error has occurred. Contact Technical Support."
(All the stages checked OK it occurs while writing the outputs files)

Or perhaps you should contact Technical Support. Sounds like one of those 'unexpected as it should never happen' kind of error.

This usually means there is a problem somewhere in one of the stages that for some reason does not get caught during the validation until the code actually starts to be generated. You can try contacting support, but I find that it's usually quicker to isolate the error myself. Create a copy of your job and start removing stages until the error goes away. Your error will be something specified incorrectly in the last removed stage.

Check that you have write permission to the folder where the COBOL and JCL are to be written (configurable, so you might also like to try a different location). Check also that the disk is not full and that there are no quota restrictions.
