FTP help

Postby Thampy » Fri Oct 05, 2018 2:39 pm

I am working on a requirement to send EDI files via FTP. The EDI file is having record length of 256 and one EDI message is spanned across multiple records. There are some messages that spanned across 1000+ records. The target system wants every single message in one line. Due to 32767 mainframe logical record constraint I am unable to combine records as some message require 256000 length.

Could you please advise how to handle this.

Change the program(s) on the target system to reassemble the short records.

Since you cannot get around the limit on LRECL, you need to fix the problem somewhere other than z/OS.
