Hi,

When User is entering date at their end-using clist, that is connected to control card and it should update the control card and also refresh it for the next date entry. According to that date we are copying records from master input file to output report.
Now, the problem is when user is entering date at their end using clist, it is not populating into control card through clist and even it is not refreshing it. So, i am not able to copy anything form input file.

Are you using ISPF file tailoring to create the control cards ?

What happens to the cards, are they put into a dataset or a PDS or .....

cards are in dataset. And we are using control card for copying from input to output. It has:
SORT FIELDS=COPY
INCLUDE COND=(136,1,CH,EQ,C'P',AND,
138,8,CH,LT,C'XXXXXXXX')

This xxxxxxxx(its a date) should be populated through user using clist. But, it is not able to populate and does not even able to refresh it for the next enter.

Which is why people ask you questions about your post, to try and get the information that should have been included from the start.

What method do you use to update these cards.

And what method do you use to include these cards into a generated JCL, or SYSIN dataset for online usage.
