Is there any option in SORT to generate sequence numbers For example, If there is a file with values like S1 S1 S2 S2 S2 I need to generate 1 for s1 2 for s1 1 for s2 2 for s2 3 for s2

Here's a DFSORT job that will do what you asked for:

Code:

//S1 EXEC PGM=ICEMAN
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
S1
S1
S2
S2
S2
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
INREC BUILD=(SEQNUM,1,ZD,RESTART=(1,2),
C' for ',1,2)
/*

If you're not familiar with DFSORT and DFSORT's ICETOOL, I'd suggest reading through "z/OS DFSORT: Getting Started". It's an excellent tutorial, with lots of examples, that will show you how to use DFSORT, DFSORT's ICETOOL and DFSORT Symbols. You can access it online, along with all of the other DFSORT books, from:
