Hi,
I have an input file of LRECL=120 (20 key + 50 data1 + 50 data2) and two output files

(1st output file of LRECL=80 (20 byte key + 10 byte ZEROS + 50 data1) and
2nd output file of LRECL=80 (20 byte key + 10 byte ZEROS + 50 data2).

Can someone help me with the SORT commands for the same???

I know its possible using OUTREC FIELDS and OUTFIL. But, i am not able to come up with the right syntax.

Have you looked at the OUTFIL Control Statements?

Code:

//STEP2 EXEC PGM=SORT                                           
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                                         
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*                                           
//SORTIN DD DSN=indsn,DISP=SHR 
//O1  DD DSN=odsn1,       
// DISP=(NEW,KEEP,KEEP),                               
// DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=0)                 
//O2  DD DSN=odsn2,       
// DISP=(NEW,KEEP,KEEP),                               
// DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=0)                 
//SYSIN DD *                                           
  SORT FIELDS=COPY                                     
   OUTFIL FNAMES=O1,

rakesh1155,

Here's a DFSORT job that will do what you asked for. Note the use of 10C'0'. You don't need to specify DCB attributes for the output data sets - DFSORT will set them automatically.

Code:

//S1    EXEC  PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT    DD  SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN=... input file (FB/80)
//OUT1 DD DSN=...  output file1 (FB/80)
//OUT2 DD DSN=...  output file2 (FB/80)
//SYSIN    DD    *
  OPTION COPY
  OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT1,BUILD=(1,20,10C'0',21,50)
  OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT2,BUILD=(1,20,10C'0',71,50)
