JCL to merge the records in a single PS file

Post by aishvarya_82 » Thu Feb 11, 2016 2:57 pm

Hi,

I have a requirement where I need to merge the records present in a single PS file having same values for a field.

For example :

Input PS file , LRECL = 80 has following records :

12345 abcd test1
11111 abcd test2
33333 efghi test3
44444 efghi test4
55555 efghi test5

Output should be
12345 abcd test1 11111 abcd test2
33333 efghi test3 44444 efghi test4 55555 efghi test5

In above example if second field is same then I need all the records having the same value for second field as a single record in o/p file.

Is this possible via JCL ?
