In SYNCSORT, How will I create an output data + the current system date (in JULIAN format)

Hello and welcome to the forum,

You need to post some sample input data and the output you want from that input.

Your title mentions Syncsort, but you posted in the cobol part of the forum. . . This is being moved to the Syncsort part of the forum. If this is not what you want, please clarify.

cdellamas,

Assuming your input data is FB/80, and you want the Julian date added to the end of each record as yyyyddd, try this:

Select all

//SYSIN DD *
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFIL BUILD=(1,80,&DATE3)
