I need help to get the duplicate records eliminated for the file having 80 length of fixed block

my input looks like this:

Select all

AAA 20080122 1200
AAA 20091201 1800
AAA 20070506 3000

i need a output file with sum of values in third field for duplicates and with maximum date in the second column:

Select all

AAA 20091201 6000

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

Select all

//S1 EXEC PGM=ICEMAN
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD *
AAA 20080122 1200
AAA 20091201 1800
AAA 20070506 3000
/*
//SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
OPTION COPY
OUTFIL REMOVECC,NODETAIL,
SECTIONS=(1,3,
TRAILER3=(1,4,MAX=(5,8,ZD,TO=ZD,LENGTH=8),X,
TOT=(14,4,ZD,TO=ZD,LENGTH=4)))
