Hi There,

Many thanks for you kind support thru this forum.

I have a requirement to create 4 output records for each input record. My requirement is, I have a input like

Code:
ABD HEADER ROW
   1111.111.1111
   2222.22.222222
   3333.333.333


And my expected output is

Code:
ABD HEADER ROW
     FROM DSN=1111.111.1111
     SRC=A1B2C3
     TO     DSN=AES.111.1111.D
     TGT=A7B8C9
     FROM DSN=2222.22.222222
     SRC=A1B2C3
     TO     DSN=AES.22.222222.D
     TGT=A7B8C9
     FROM DSN=3333.333.333
     SRC=A1B2C3
     TO     DSN=AES.333.333.D
     TGT=A7B8C9


I tried INREC-BUILD and OUTREC-WHEN-BUILD options but no luck. With INREC BUILD, I am able to add "1234" but OUTREC option copying only first output line.

Due to security and access restrictions, I am unable to provide my tried solution here. Could someone please help in this regard or guide which DFSORT options I should use to get desired output.

Kindly let me know if you need any additional details.

Thanks in advance.

Use the OUTFIL slash (/) operator to create new record/new lines in output.

Hi Rahul,

Thanks for your quick reply.

I have created below sort card but unable to test it since I am not in office.

Code:
OPTIONS COPY
INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,1,NE,C' '),BUILD=(1,80,81,C'1'))
OUTFIL IFTHEN=(WHEN=(81,1,CH,EQ,C'1'),     
         BUILD=(1,C'     FROM DSN=',14:1,80,/,
         C'   SRC=A1B2C3',80:X),HIT=NEXT),
         IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,14,CH,EQ,C'  C'TEST'),     
         BUILD=(1,C'   TO     DSN=',14:1,80,/,
         C'   TGT=A7B8C9',80:X))


Will you be able to validate my sort card.

By the way, my desired out is like below. I am really sorry for the mistake in my first post.

Code:
ABD HEADER ROW
     FROM DSN='1111.111.1111' -
     SRC=A1B2C3 -
     TO   DSN='AES.111.1111.D' -
     TGT=A7B8C9
     FROM DSN='2222.22.222222
     SRC=A1B2C3 -
     TO   DSN='AES.22.222222.D -
     TGT=A7B8C9
     FROM DSN='3333.333.333' -
     SRC=A1B2C3 -
     TO   DSN='AES.333.333.D' -
     TGT=A7B8C9


My question is how can I trim/strip leading spaces from my input record and add single quotes.

Please advise.

Thanks again.

To insert single quote you'll use C'''' i.e. 4 single quotes

If your input is like this:
Code:
ABD HEADER ROW
    1111.111.1111
    2222.222.2222
    3333.333.3333


Then you can try something like this:
Code:
 OUTFIL IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,1,CH,EQ,C' '),
     BUILD=(1:4C' ',5:C'FROM DSN=',14:C'''',5,13,28:C'''',/,
            1:4C' ',5:C'SRC=A1B2C3',/,
            1:4C' ',5:C'TO   DSN=',14:C'''',15:C'AES.',5,13,32:C'''',/,
            1:4C' ',5:C'TGT=A7B8C9'))
 OPTION COPY


To get Output like this:
Code:
ABD HEADER ROW
    FROM DSN='1111.111.1111'
    SRC=A1B2C3
    TO   DSN='AES.1111.111.1111'
    TGT=A7B8C9
    FROM DSN='2222.222.2222'
    SRC=A1B2C3
    TO   DSN='AES.2222.222.2222'
    TGT=A7B8C9
    FROM DSN='3333.333.3333'
    SRC=A1B2C3
    TO   DSN='AES.3333.333.3333'
    TGT=A7B8C9

Usually the field positions for input data of this type are varying. In order to provide flexible way of extraction from input data (e.g. names in this case) the parameter PARSE is highly desired in INREC/OUTREC/OUTFIL statements of SORT. Otherwise customization is needed before each run of this job, and this "automated solution" would need more efforts than manual typing of required output.

Hi There,

Sorry for the delayed update. I have tweaked my input a little and my expected output.

Input:
Code:
ABD HEADER ROW
X12345678.111.1111
X12345678.22.222222
X12345678.333.333


Expected Output:
Code:
ABD HEADER ROW
CPY0001  COPY FROM (DSN='12345678.111.1111' -
         DISP=SHR) -
         TO (DSN='TXT.111.1111' -
         DISP=NEW)
CPY0002  COPY FROM (DSN='1234567822.222222' -
         DISP=SHR) -
         TO (DSN='TXT.22.222222' -
         DISP=NEW)
CPY0003  COPY FROM (DSN='12345678.333.333' -
         DISP=SHR) -
         TO (DSN='TXT.333.333' -
         DISP=NEW)


Thanks Rahul and Frank (for JFY option from other post) for your inputs. I could able to achieve my requirement with below sort card.

Code:
OPTIONS COPY
INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,1,EQ,C'X'),
              BUILD=(1,80,81:SEQNUM,4,ZD,START=1,INCR=1))
OUTFIL IFTHEN=(WHEN=(1,1,CH,EQ,C'X'),     
         BUILD=(C'CPY'4:81,4,C' COPY FROM (DSN=',
                24:2,79,JFY=(SHIFT=LEFT,LEAD=C'''',TRAIL=C''' -'),/,
                C'       DISP=SHR)     -',/,
                C'       TO (DSN=',
                17:10,71,JFY=(SHIFT=LEFT,LEAD=C'''TXT.',TRAIL=C'.D'' -'),/,
                C'       DISP=NEW)'))


Note: Output positions may vary. I am unable to post exact input and out here.

Thanks again for your support.
