You will need to adapt the positions to suit your needs, but this works OK for me to reformat records.
This basically puts 21 spaces after the first 14 bytes, then the 4 bytes from column 15 and then pads the record to 120 bytes with spaces.
The SORTIN DD * input is 80 bytes and the SORTOUT output is 120 bytes.
