Hi,

my requirement is to copy two input files in to an output file by eliminating the records(matched key value,in my case its column 1-3) present in the second input file.

for example my second input file which have the value 111 333 is to be eliminated in the output file.

Let me know if you need more information.

Regards,
Rajan BOSE.

Hi,

I tried with the above code and it works fine.But in my case the requirement as i mentioned already is when my key value matches in both the file, the records in Input file1 should be taken for that key value and not the one present in Input File2.

Input File1:
111 764
111 876
111 678
111 345

Input file2:
111 333
111 567
222 333
555 334
777 363
Expected Output:

111 764
111 876
111 678
111 345
222 333
555 334
777 363

But with the above code the output is:

111 764
111 764
111 876
111 876
111 678
111 678
111 345
111 345
222 333
555 334
777 363

srajanbose,

You don't need all the passes smijoss used. You can do it more efficiently with a DFSORT JOINKEYS job like the following:

Code:

//S2 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*
//INA      DD *
111 764
111 876
111 678
111 345
//INB      DD *
111 333
111 567
222 333
555 334
777 363
//OUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD *
  JOINKEYS F1=INA,FIELDS=(1,3,A)
  JOINKEYS F2=INB,FIELDS=(1,3,A)
  JOIN UNPAIRED,F2
  REFORMAT FIELDS=(F1:1,80,F2:1,80,?)
  INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(161,1,CH,EQ,C'B'),
     BUILD=(1,80)),
   IFTHEN=(WHEN=NONE,
     BUILD=(81,80))
  OPTION COPY
  OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT,REMOVECC,NODETAIL,
    SECTIONS=(1,7,
      TRAILER3=(1,80))

Frank,

Wow...Don't know if OP is still interested in solution or not but thanks for posting solution. I was lost after JOIN UNPAIRED,F2.

Thanks,

hey frank this is good. got to learn something new.
especially the difference between
JOIN UNPAIRED,F2 JOIN UNPAIRED,F1 and JOIN UNPAIRED,F1,F2

one doubt :
is there any way to handle duplicate records too

like in this case if
//INA DD *
111 764
111 764
/*

only the 2nd record is moved to output.

smijoss,
Can you have more than 2 records? if more than 2 records are possible how do you want the output be?

Hi Frank,

I tried the above code and got MAXXCC=0016 with below information in the spool:

JOINKEYS REFORMAT RECORD LENGTH= 160, TYPE = F
INREC RECORD LENGTH = 80
OUT : RECFM=FB ; LRECL= 80; BLKSIZE= 80
INCLUDE/OMIT FIELD BEYOND RECORD
SYNCSMF CALLED BY SYNCSORT; RC=0000
SYNCSORT GLOBAL DSM SUBSYSTEM ACTIVE
JNF1 STATISTICS

Your are using Join keys for pairing the key value in both the file and reformatting the file with 80 bytes but i couldnt understand the importance of ? in reformat field.I tried to find the same in many documents but couldnt get a clear idea.
Can you please explain

hi sqlcode1,

i am refering to to FRANK's Job mentioned above

if i change the INA dd to

//INA DD *
111 764
111 764
/*

output should have been :
111 764
111 764
222 333
555 334
777 363

but with Franks Sort card i get
111 764
222 333
555 334
777 363

Hi Frank,

Forgot to add one more point I got the above return code as i removed the ? from Reformat Fields.
If i have the ? in Reformat fields I get the below error message:

did You notice that the topic was moved to the jcl forum ?
the syn.... stuff and the wer.... messages indicate that You are using syncsort

Frank and Kolusu are DFSORT developers , seems unfair to ask them to answer questions dealing with <competitor> software icon_biggrin.gif

DFSORT supports the ? indicator for JOINKEYS. AFAIK, Syncsort doesn't.

Here are the SyncSort for z/OS control statements that should give you the requested output:
Code:

  JOIN UNPAIRED                                       
  REFORMAT FIELDS=(F1:1,80,F2:1,80)                   
  INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,80,CH,EQ,C' '),BUILD=(81,80)),
        IFTHEN=(WHEN=NONE,BUILD=(1,80))               
  SORT FIELDS=(1,7,CH,A)                             
  SUM FIELDS=NONE                                     
/*                                             

Please let us know if you continue to encounter difficulties or have any follow-up questions.

Below is the control card that i gave for my requirement:

//SYSIN DD *
JOINKEYS FILES=F1,FIELDS=(1,13,A)
JOINKEYS FILES=F2,FIELDS=(1,13,A)
JOIN UNPAIRED
REFORMAT FIELDS=(F1:1,106,F2:1,106)
INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,106,CH,EQ,C' '),BUILD=(107,106)),
IFTHEN=(WHEN=NONE,BUILD=(1,106))
SORT FIELDS=(1,13,CH,A)
SUM FIELDS=NONE
/*


I tried various options with your Control card but couldnt get the desired output.
Please help in this regard.

You should get the desired results if you change the SORT statement

from
Code:
SORT FIELDS=(1,13,CH,A)
to
Code:
SORT FIELDS=(1,106,CH,A)

Please let us know if this resolves the issue.
