Could some one please point me in the right direction for how to define a unsigned packed field "PIC 9(10) COMP-3." that I am trying to match with a ZD field. There are no syntax errors, but it wont pick up the match until I manually change the input record from 'F' to 'C' .
Code:

W1111     ?           
EFFFF004006002000000
6111120042F22F0F0000   <-- wont find
--------------------

W1111     %           
EFFFF004006002000000
6111120042C22C0C0000    <-- manually chged and does find

I have tried several combinations from here already
Use [URL] BBCode for External Links

This is my coding to OMIT a record from the input file and write that omitted record to another file and rewrite the original file without the omitted recd.
Code:

//STEP01  EXEC PGM=ICEMAN,PARM='CORE=MAX'
//SORTIN  DD Input-file
//OUT1    DD Output-file1
//OUT2    DD Output-file2
//SYMNAMES  DD *
  KEY_LEN1,6
  SRTIN_KY1,6,6,PD     <-- problem here ?
  SORTIN_RECORD,1,80,CH
  JOIN_ID,*,1,CH
  OMIT_KEY1,2,10,ZD
  OMIT_KEY_PD1,*,6,PD  <-- problem here ?
/*
//SYSIN     DD *
 SORT FIELDS=COPY
 JOINKEYS F1=SORTIN,FIELDS=(SRTIN_KY1,A)
 JOINKEYS F2=OMIT,
          FIELDS=(OMIT_KEY_PD1,A)
 JOIN UNPAIRED,F1
 REFORMAT FIELDS=(F1:SORTIN_RECORD,?)
 OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT1,
         INCLUDE=(JOIN_ID,NE,C'B'),
         BUILD=(SORTIN_RECORD)
 OUTFIL FNAMES=OUT2,
         SAVE,
         BUILD=(SORTIN_RECORD)
/*
//OMIT  DD *
 2004004026
/*
//JNF2CNTL  DD *
 INREC OVERLAY=(OMIT_KEY_PD1:OMIT_KEY1,TO=PD,LENGTH=KEY_LEN1)
/*

Thank you for any advice you can give!

I did try the suggestion of using formats PDC/PDF but got this syntax error
Code:
ICE270I 0 PROCESSING SYMNAMES STATEMENTS
            SRTIN_KY1,6,6,PDC
                          $
ICE805I 1 JOBNAME: E501920I , STEPNAME: STEP01
ICE802I 0 BLOCKSET     TECHNIQUE IN CONTROL
ICE272A 0 SYMBOL, VALUE OR SYNTAX IS INVALID
            OMIT_KEY_PD1,*,6,PDC
                             $
ICE272A 0 SYMBOL, VALUE OR SYNTAX IS INVALID
ICE279A 0 ONE OR MORE ERRORS ENCOUNTERED DURING SYMNAMES PROCESSING

Oh! Now I see! You put the PDF on This control card --
Code:
//JNF2CNTL  DD *
 INREC OVERLAY=(OMIT_KEY_PD1:OMIT_KEY1,TO=PDF,LENGTH=KEY_LEN1)


Thanks Everyone!!

Yes! It Definitely worked exactly as I hoped, even after I added the two other JOINKEYS. Thanks Again Joerg!

Thanks Everyone!!

BTW: it is allowed to perform this conversion in-place, for not to introduce extra working fields. Usually it doesn't make any harm to other processing.
Code:
//JNF2CNTL  DD *
 INREC OVERLAY=(OMIT_KEY1:OMIT_KEY1,TO=PDF,LENGTH=KEY_LEN1)
