If you're not familiar with DFSORT and DFSORT's ICETOOL, I'd suggest reading through "z/OS DFSORT: Getting Started". It's an excellent tutorial, with lots of examples, that will show you how to use DFSORT, DFSORT's ICETOOL and DFSORT Symbols. You can access it online, along with all of the other DFSORT books, from:

It's a bit higgledy-piggledy, as one might say.
Although the data is shown seperated by one blank, the description says we should assume they are continuous, so I imagine the blank is not really there.
1,7 14,4, 8,2 and 11,2 I'd "assume".
Output shows only six digits for the invoice...
The second sort would need EQUALS.
There is no need for anything to be ZD, they can all be CH - not expecting any signs, so no need to sort on signs.
Of course, the TS has abandoned us, so we'll not know for sure.
