Hi All ,
How to insert the Current date - 1 day into a dataset using Date features in DFSORT. Using DATE we can insert current date , but how to insert the current date - 1 Day .
Thanks

It's not clear exactly what you want to do. Do you want to insert date-1 in every record or in one record or what? What format do you want for the inserted date-1?
At any rate, DFSORT can insert date-1 day constants in various forms with the BUILD operand. For example:
| Code: |
...
//SORTIN DD *
RECORD
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
INREC BUILD=(DATE1-1)
/*
|
Will insert a date-1 day constant in the form C'yyyymmdd'. For complete information on DFSORT's date-n and date+n constants, see:

If you want more specific help, explain what you want to do in more detail with an example, if appropriate. |

Hi Frank,
Iam able to execute the below card
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTREC BUILD=(DATE1(.))
But unable to execute this
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTREC BUILD=(DATE1(.)-1) .... Getting Syntax Error
My requirement is ..single record should be replaced with Current date - 1 day.

Hi Frank,
Please find the Sysout for the Syntax error below
| Code: |
SYSIN :
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTREC BUILD=(DATE1(.)-1)
*
WER268A OUTREC STATEMENT : SYNTAX ERROR
WER211B SYNCSMF CALLED BY SYNCSORT; RC=0000

Thanks

| The statement I posted using DATE1-1 works fine with DFSORT. But the WER messages indicate you're using Syncsort, not DFSORT. |

Anish,
I'm a DFSORT developer. DFSORT and Syncsort are competitive products. I'm happy to answer questions on DFSORT and DFSORT's ICETOOL, but I don't answer questions on Syncsort. |

HI All,
Can any epert in SYNCSORT explain me how to get the CURRENT DATE - 1 DAY . SYNCSORT allows for CURRENT DATE but not for PAST or FUTURE DATEs.
Thanks,
Anish. |
