Hi all ,

i am getting the OUTREC error

I have the input file of LRECL=612 and i am soring the file on particular field from the postion 11-16 and writing the sorted filed in the output file
when i am using the below OUTREC syntax it is giving me the following error


ICE000I J - CONTROL STATEMENTS FOR 5694-A01, Z/OS DFSORT V1R5 - 01:40 ON SAT OCT
SORT FIELDS=(15,6,PD,A)
SUM FIELDS=NONE
OUTREC FIELDS=(5:15,10,ZD,602X)
ICE201I J RECORD TYPE IS V - DATA STARTS IN POSITION 5
ICE126A J INCONSISTENT *OUTREC IFTHEN 0 REFORMATTING FIELD FOUND
ICE052I J END OF DFSORT



Code:

//STEP00   EXEC PGM=SORT                                         
//SYSPRINT DD  SYSOUT=*                                         
//SYSLIST  DD  SYSOUT=*                                         
//SYSOUT   DD  SYSOUT=*                                         
//SORTIN   DD  DSN=ZPFCB.PBI.C0710.CR125T01.XVP.COPY,
//            DISP=SHR ,DCB=(LRECL=612,RECFM=VB,BLKSIZE=0)                                         
//SORTOUT  DD  DSN=ZPFCB.PBI.C0710.CR125T01.XVP.SRT1,   
//*            DISP=OLD,                                         
//            DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),                           
//            DCB=(LRECL=616,RECFM=vB,BLKSIZE=0),               
//            SPACE=(CYL,(100,100),RLSE)                       
//SYSIN    DD  *                                                 
  SORT FIELDS=(15,6,PD,A)                                       
  SUM FIELDS=NONE                                               
  OUTREC FIELDS=(5:15,10,ZD,602X)

Please give the solution

Please give me the OUTREC syntax for both the fixed length and variable length file.

Your OP file is 616 in lenght. But your outrec statement is 612 in lenght. Include RDW bytes in your outrec stattement.

BRKS,

Code:

Try this -

Code:
OUTREC FIELDS=(1,4,5:15,10,PD,TO=ZD,LENGTH=n)


Change 'n' value according to your requirement.
