Hi,
I want to exclude the records which are more than 5 years old.
The problem is, i can't give the specific year.
It should run for each year automatically.
Is there any way to do it?
regards,
sharad |

What is this col 5 to 8 looks like.
Anyway with some assumption Im posting this:
In the SORT omit condition you can use date function with relative -5 to years. |

Here's a DFSORT job that will do what you asked for:
| Code: |
//S1 EXEC PGM=ICEMAN
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
RECORD
/*
//SORTOUT DD DSN=&&S1,UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(TRK,(1,1)),DISP=(,PASS)
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
* Create DFSORT Symbol as follows:
* Year,'yyyy'
* where yyyy is current year - 4
INREC OVERLAY=(21:DATE2,
1:C'Year,''',21,4,ZD,SUB,+4,EDIT=(TTTT),C'''',21:60X)
/*
//S2 EXEC PGM=ICEMAN
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYMNAMES DD DSN=&&S1,DISP=(OLD,PASS)
//SORTIN DD DSN=... input file
//SORTOUT DD DSN=... output file
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
* Use Year symbol in INCLUDE statement
INCLUDE COND=(5,4,CH,GE,Year)
/*
