Hi,
Please help me in writing a job.
My requirement is:
Below 5 jobs are creating 5 output files. We have to build a job to merge these files and create a report where jobs are completed successfully. We have to check each job seperately
Please populate the Report with trailer records information from the below Input files.
If job ran successfully, the JCL/program should scan the input files for tralier records, extract account number, total number of checks and total amount and write to the report.
If a job did not run on a day, the report should show an Error like..."XXXXX" with zeros on all accounts.
If a job ran successfully and there was no information on the file for a particular account, the report should show zeros against that account.
I am not sure if these can be done in the job or we should write a cobol module. Please let me know if we should discuss further.

Offhand, it sounds doable with a utility or reporting tool (DFSORT, SAS, Easytrieve).
If you want to try it with DFSORT, providing you have DFSORT installed, I would recommend that you gather up all the details (dataset record formats and record lengths), the format of the STATUS file, what the input records look like, what you want the output to look like, and post it all here.

45 - 80 Filler Spaces
