Don't be afraid to make a mistake. But make sure you don't make the same mistake twice. (Akio Morita)
'nuff said...
And furthermore, your question has fluck all to do with JCL! |

Thanks Serheyken for the response.
I am getting below output when I am using it:-
Where as it should be:-
I want to increment the time by 30 Minutes and not 30 as decimal.
I hope you understood the problem |

As Prino says, this is not a JCL question; it is, or should be, a sort question, as (presumably) the sort product is the entity altering a time value in data. JCL cannot manipulate or alter data in any way. JCL simply specifies the resources required to run a program.
Second, I do not think the topic starter has thought this through. A time of day is always linked to a date, at least by implication. If I say it is 23:45 I imply it is also today (presumably October 27), so to add 30 minutes to 23:45 I also imply it is 00:15 October 28. |

SORT is not supposed to seriously manipulate with specific data types, like TIME. In general, one can use a number of sophisticated combination of IFTHEN/WHEN parameters to recalculate it as desired. But in this case it would resemble an attempt to calculate a square root value using SORT facility...  |

the problem was not given enough consideration ...
the TS did not take into account that for the times after 23.30
the increment would imply a date change also |

| Not a dfsort problem - TS is using Syncsort. Locked. |
