Hi,

I have a requirement to allocate output file based upon the different of record type in input file. The no of Record type are not fixed & could be N.

For ex -

HDR1ASAS122222
DTL1SASA1312321
TRL1ASAS1121311
HDR2SADSAD1221
DTL2DSD13123211
TRL2SDSAD11213
HDR3FDSFSD1122
DTL3DSFSF213111
TRL3DFSFS211213

I need all of these records in 3 different files.
1st file for HDR1, DTL1, TRL1
2nd File for HDR2, DTL2,TRL2.....so on

Can any one suggest some approach for this?

Hi,
Use the OUTFILL for creating 3 files and use the IF THEN WHEN condition to differentiate the 3 record like =(4,1,EQ,CH,’1’)
BUILD

Check for the syntax, I hope this will help

How do you differentiate between headers, trailers and data records.
What positions are the keys, what length and what format.
What are the file attribute for the input file, RECFM & LRECL
