Hi All,
I have a wired requirement. My input file is Below
ACC TYPE
1 A
1 B
1 C
2 A
2 B
2 C
3 D
3 E
I want to sort this file on Account with eliminating duplicates But in this case I want to have preference for TYPE= A, means the record which will be written after eliminating duplicates will have preference for Type A.
if there is no records for particular account with type as A then any type can be written but only one row.
So in this case my out put needs to be
ACCOUNT TYPE
1 A
2 A
3 D
I agree this can be done with cobol program but is there any way this can be achieved using DFSORT
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Chandan |

Hi Ekta,
Thanks for your reply..
Sorry to say I was aware of this solution..and the type code which have mentioned if for the example purpose..
its not always true the required record will come first in sort order
For given example the type code is A so this solution will work but type code can be changed to 'B' or 'C'
Please let me know if I am missing anything
Regards,
Chandan |

Hello,
Show a more complete set of input data and the output you want from this expanded input. Clearly explain what "For given example the type code is A so this solution will work but type code can be changed to 'B' or 'C' " means. It is not at all clear.
Possibly this will be easier to understand if you use more realistic values rather than alphabet soup. . .
When posting the data, use the Code tag and Preview your post to make sure it looks like you want. |

chandan.inst,
Assuming your input is FB recfm and 80 byte LRECL. use the following DFSORT/ICETOOL JCL which will give you the desired results. Depending on your type code you want to come first, change the 2nd IFTHEN statement to reflect the type code you interested.
| Code: |
//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//IN DD *
1 A
1 B
1 C
2 A
2 B
2 C
3 D
3 E
//OUT DD SYSOUT=*
//TOOLIN DD *
SELECT FROM(IN) TO(OUT) ON(1,1,CH) FIRST USING(CTL1)
//CTL1CNTL DD *
INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=INIT,OVERLAY=(81:C'1')),
IFTHEN=(WHEN=(3,1,CH,EQ,C'A'),OVERLAY=(81:C'0'))
SORT FIELDS=(1,1,CH,A,81,1,CH,A)
OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT,BUILD=(1,80)
//* |
