Hi,

I have the following data that I want to reformat.

input
Code:
ARCA,ARCA,C,,0.00085
ARCA,ARCA,F,,0.003
ARCA,ARCA,G,,0.0005
ARCA,ARCA,L,,0.003
ARCA,ARCA,M,,-0.0015


desired output
Code:

ARCAARCAC  00008500
ARCAARCAF  00030000
ARCAARCAG  00005000
ARCAARCAL  00030000
ARCAARCAM  00015000-


I am using the following sort card
Code:
 OPTION COPY
 INREC PARSE=(%01=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=4),
              %02=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=4),
              %03=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=2),
              %04=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),
              %05=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=8)),
       BUILD=(%01,%02,%03,%04,%05,SFF,TO=ZD,LENGTH=8)
 OUTREC FIELDS=(1,11,
               (12,08,ZD,MUL,+1000),
                EDIT=(TTTTTTTTS),SIGNS=(,,,-))


but I am ending up with the following:
Code:
ARCAARCAC  00085000
ARCAARCAF  00003000
ARCAARCAG  00005000
ARCAARCAL  00003000
ARCAARCAM  00015000-


It seems like since SFF does not retain decimal place, my data is getting messed up because my input file is not padded with zeroes. Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks.

Please check if this works for you..

Code:

//SYSIN    DD  *                                                   
  OPTION COPY                                                     
  INREC FINDREP=(STARTPOS=14,ENDPOS=21,IN=C' ',OUT=C'0')           
  OUTREC PARSE=(%01=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=4),                       
                %02=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=4),                       
                %03=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=2),                       
                %04=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),                       
                %05=(ENDBEFR=C' ',FIXLEN=8)),                     
         BUILD=(%01,%02,%03,%04,%05,SFF,TO=ZD,LENGTH=8)           
  OUTFIL BUILD=(1,11,12,8,ZD,MUL,+10,EDIT=(TTTTTTTTS),SIGNS=(,,,-))
//*                                                               



Output:
Code:

ARCAARCAC  00008500
ARCAARCAF  00030000
ARCAARCAG  00005000
ARCAARCAL  00030000
ARCAARCAM  00001500-


Thanks,
Ashwin.

hailashwin, did you check that final figure?

darkstar13,

Having identified what is happening, it is only a small step to a resolution. If it can't be done one way, look for another.

Although the leading minus sign complicates, you can get rid of the "." with a simple rearrangement of data, and change trailing spaces to zero with FINDREP or by multiple IFTHENs, with perhaps other possibilities.

Hi darkstar13,

You can try this -

Code:

//STEP1   EXEC PGM=SORT                                               
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                                                 
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*                                                   
//SORTIN   DD *                                                       
ARCA,ARCA,C,,0.00085                                                   
ARCA,ARCA,F,,0.003                                                     
ARCA,ARCA,G,,0.0005                                                   
ARCA,ARCA,L,,0.003                                                     
ARCA,ARCA,M,,-0.0015                                                   
//SORTOUT  DD SYSOUT=*                                                 
//SYSIN    DD *                                                       
 OPTION COPY                                                           
  INREC PARSE=(%01=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=4),                           
               %02=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=4),                           
               %03=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=2),                           
               %04=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),                           
               %05=(ENDBEFR=C'.',FIXLEN=2),                           
               %06=(FIXLEN=5)),                                       
 OVERLAY=(%01,%02,%03,%04,%05,JFY=(SHIFT=RIGHT),                       
       14:%06,ZD,EDIT=(TTTTT),10X,                                     
       12:12,08,JFY=(SHIFT=RIGHT),                                     
       12:12,08,SFF,TO=ZD,LENGTH=08)                                   
 OUTREC OVERLAY=(12:13,7,ZD,MUL,+100,EDIT=(TTTTTTTTS),SIGNS=(,,,-),10X)


And Output :-

Code:

ARCAARCAC  00008500 
ARCAARCAF  00030000 
ARCAARCAG  00005000 
ARCAARCAL  00030000 
ARCAARCAM  00015000-


Thanks

darkstar13,

Use the following DFSORT JCL which will give you the desired results. I assumed that your final number has S9V9(7) with trailing sign.

Code:

//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=SORT                       
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*                         
//SORTIN   DD *                                 
ARCA,ARCA,C,,0.00085                           
ARCA,ARCA,F,,0.003                             
ARCA,ARCA,G,,0.0005                             
ARCA,ARCA,L,,0.003                             
ARCA,ARCA,M,,-0.0015                           
//SORTOUT  DD SYSOUT=*                         
//SYSIN    DD *                                 
  OPTION COPY                                   
  INREC PARSE=(%01=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=4),     
               %02=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=4),     
               %03=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=2),     
               %04=(ENDBEFR=C',',FIXLEN=1),     
               %05=(ENDBEFR=C'.',FIXLEN=2),     
               %06=(FIXLEN=7)),                 
        BUILD=(%01,%02,%03,%04,                 
               %05,SFF,EDIT=(T),%06,TRAN=ALTSEQ,
               %05,SFF,EDIT=(S),SIGNS=(,-))     
  ALTSEQ CODE=(40F0)                           
//*


The output from this is
Code:

ARCAARCAC  00008500
ARCAARCAF  00030000
ARCAARCAG  00005000
ARCAARCAL  00030000
ARCAARCAM  00015000-

Hi Bodatrinadh, Skolusu,

Thanks a lot. It was a brilliant idea to parse using the decimal point ;)

I got the result that I wanted.

To Hailashwin and Bill, thanks for your reply. Your input is very much appreciated too. ;)
