Mani,
You can use a DFSORT job like the following to do what you asked for. I assumed your input file has RECFM=FB and LRECL=80, but the job can be changed appropriately for other attributes.

Thank you Frank! The above code is writing only the trailer record in the output file. I need the outfile with Detail as well as trailer record. Could you help?

Mani,
My job does what you asked for based on the input you showed and the expected output you showed. If you're not getting the details records, then your input is either different than what you said it was, or you changed my job in some way.
Your input example shows D records followed by a T record for each group where D and T are in position 1. Is that what it really looks like?
If not, show a better example.
You would have to show me YOUR actual job and JES messages for the run before I could try to figure out what you did wrong.

And yet, you didn't bother to show any useful information when you said it didn't work for you.
