Hi,

I have a requirement where I need to find the records in which certain attributes have changed in the current file as compared to the prev day file ad write the delta records to a new file.

Details as below:
1) Both files have the same structure and a key in position 1:4
2) Key field cannot change in current version as compared to prev version only attributes field can change.

File Format:


Code:


Key          PIC  S9(09)  COMP        1:4
Attribute1   PIC  S9(08)V COMP-3      18:5
Attribute2   PIC   X(30)        23:30
Attribute3   PIC   X(01)        206:1



I have written the following code and its not working as desired:


Code:


//STEP1    EXEC PGM=SORT                                               
//SORTOUT  DD SYSOUT=*                                                 
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*                                                 
//SORTJNF1 DD DSN=CURR,DISP=SHR   
//SORTJNF2 DD DSN=PREV,DISP=SHR   
//SYSIN    DD *                                                       
  OPTION COPY                                                         
  JOINKEYS FILES=F1,FIELDS=(1,4,A),SORTED                             
  JOINKEYS FILES=F2,FIELDS=(1,4,A),SORTED                             
  JOIN UNPAIRED                                                       
  REFORMAT FIELDS=(F1:1,4,18,5,23,30,206,1,F2:1,4,18,5,23,30,206,1)   
  OUTFIL REMOVECC,OMIT=(1,40,CH,EQ,41,40,CH),                         
  IFTHEN=(WHEN=(41,1,CH,EQ,C'1'),BUILD=(C' ',1,4)),                   
  IFTHEN=(WHEN=(NONE),BUILD=(C' ',1,4))                               
/*                                                                     
//*

Why would you need UNPAIRED?

Although you have two conditions, condition-1 and not-condition-1, you do the same build for each, a blank followed by the key.

Show sample input records which cover all your options, expected output, please.

Try:
Code:

Hi Anuj,

Thanks for your response.

The fields are not consecutive, below is the definition


Code:

Key          PIC  S9(09)  COMP        1:4
Attribute1   PIC  S9(08)V COMP-3      18:5
Attribute2   PIC   X(30)        23:30
Attribute3   PIC   X(01)        206:1


so do u want me to make a consecutive file of the above fields using outrec and then run the above ?

I've showed a solution for the inputs you've posted and that give this as output, which is same as you show as expected output:
Code:
AAAA 1234 BARBARA S
CCCC 9012 AIRLOUNGE Y
DDDD 5555 DAVIDOFF T

I've used the inputs as in-stream data so the assumptions are that your input files are FB, LRECL=80. If they differ we'd need to tweak the sort statements. So if the keys to be compared are at multiple positions, mention those positions at JOINKEYS statement as shown here: ibmmainframes.com/about51839.html and see if it works for you.

Code:
  JOIN UNPAIRED F1,F2


I think the F1,F2 is being treated as a comment.

UNPAIRED will get F1,F2 anyway.

Since mismatches are ignored in the INCLUDE, why not drop the JOIN altogether, so you only get matched records?

frozenblood, I at least am unclear about what you mean,

Please show representative inputs, and expected output. Don't expect people to keep providing solutions as you change your inputs - or, unless told it is not possible with what you have - expect people to imagine it a good idea for you to change your data to fit a solution.

Thanks everyone, I have achieved the above requirement in 2 steps :

Code:


1) Sort the curr and prev file on the basis of key field and write only the required fields(to be compared for delta) using OUTREC to temp datasets respectively. Hence making both datasets of LRECL 40

2)

//STEP3    EXEC PGM=SORT                                             
//SORTOUT  DD DSN=DELTA,             
//            DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),                               
//            AVGREC=K,SPACE=(40,(1900,300),RLSE),                   
//            RECFM=FB,LRECL=40                                       
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*                                               
//SORTJNF1 DD DSN=TEMP.CURR,DISP=SHR
//SORTJNF2 DD DSN=TEMP.PREV,DISP=SHR
//SYSIN    DD *                                                       
  SORT FIELDS=COPY                                                   
  JOINKEYS FILE=F1,FIELDS=(1,40,A)                                   
  JOINKEYS FILE=F2,FIELDS=(1,40,A)                                   
  REFORMAT FIELDS=(F1:1,40,F2:1,40),FILL=C'~'                         
  JOIN UNPAIRED                                               
  OUTFIL FNAMES=SORTOUT,                                             
  INCLUDE=(01,01,CH,NE,C'~',AND,41,01,CH,EQ,C'~'),                   
  BUILD=(1,40)

Thanks Bill, I remember of looking at an example of using F1, F2 and used it that way but yes, it work without F1/F2. Thanks 'gain. Even a Saturday night makes you learn something new... icon_smile.gif

I think OP is/was looking for the unpaired F1 records but I'm not very sure.

However, the way it was explained here:

with site specif terminology it was tough to comprehend as what is needed.

You could try this then:

Code:
//STEP3    EXEC PGM=SORT                                             
//SORTOUT  DD DSN=DELTA,             
//            DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),                               
//            AVGREC=K,SPACE=(40,(1900,300),RLSE),                   
//            RECFM=FB,LRECL=40                                       
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*                                               
//SORTJNF1 DD DSN=TEMP.CURR,DISP=SHR
//SORTJNF2 DD DSN=TEMP.PREV,DISP=SHR
//SYSIN    DD *                                                       
  JOINKEYS FILE=F1,FIELDS=(1,40,A),SORTED
  JOINKEYS FILE=F2,FIELDS=(1,40,A),SORTED
  JOIN UNPAIRED,F1,ONLY                       
  REFORMAT FIELDS=(F1:1,40)
  SORT FIELDS=COPY                                                   
//*

That's better Bill. OTOH, I just tried to show a generic aproach for the two file match. Hopefully, OP has got something to work upon now.
