What is the format of the julian date? Zoned or packed decimal? Have you looked at the manual?

Do the yyddd dates all represent 20yyddd dates or do they represent 19yyddd and 20yyddd dates?

Frank,

I think it will be 20-.
But can you give me the procedure for both of the cases.

Thanks regards

aquilis,

Here's a DFSORT job that shows how to do what you asked for. I assumed that your yyddd field is in positions 1-5 and you want a century window of 1950-2049.

Code:

//S1    EXEC  PGM=ICEMAN                           
//SYSOUT    DD  SYSOUT=*                           
//SORTIN DD *
06012
51001
50001
07100
49001
99012
/*                                               
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*                               
//SYSIN    DD    *                                 
  OPTION COPY                                       
* If yy > 49, convert Z'yyddd' to X'00yydddC'       
  INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,2,ZD,GT,+49),               
    BUILD=(X'00',1,5,ZD,TO=PD,LENGTH=3)),           
* If yy <= 49, convert Z'yyddd' to X'01yydddC'     
   IFTHEN=(WHEN=NONE,                               
    BUILD=(X'01',1,5,ZD,TO=PD,LENGTH=3))           
* Convert to X'00yydddC' to Z'19yymmdd'.           
* Convert to X'01yydddC' to Z'20yymmdd'.           
  OUTREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=INIT,BUILD=(1,4,DT1)),       
* Convert to Z'ccyymmdd' to C'mm-dd-ccyy'.         
   IFTHEN=(WHEN=INIT,                               
    BUILD=(5,2,C'-',7,2,C'-',1,4))                 
/*


SORTOUT will have:

Code:

01-12-2006
01-01-1951
01-01-1950
04-10-2007
01-01-2049
01-12-1999

With z/OS DFSORT V1R5 PTF UK51706 or z/OS DFSORT V1R10 PTF UK51707 (Nov, 2009), you now use DFSORT's new date conversion functions to do this kind of thing quite easily, like so:

Code:

//S2    EXEC  PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT    DD  SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
06012
51001
50001
07100
49001
99012
/*
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD    *
   OPTION COPY,Y2PAST=1950
   INREC BUILD=(1,5,Y2T,TOGREG=Y4W(-))
/*


For complete details on date conversion functions and the other new functions available with the Nov, 2009 DFSORT PTF, see:
