Yes.

Use IFTHEN=(WHEN=GROUP to identify the heading date and PUSH the date value onto each record.

You'll need to not exclude the header early, but remember to exclude it in OUTFIL processing.

1.Use Symnames to produce date ( Examples already there)
2.Skip/Omit the header records
3.Parse the detail records and have fixed length ( Examples already there)
4.Reformat and write to output ( Examples already there)
