Generating Report using ICEMAN !!!

Postby balaryan » Fri Mar 10, 2017 3:14 am

Hi Team,

I would like to hear from experts how to achieve the below-listed report with formatting.

Input file will be like field 1 with store #, field 2 with dept, field 3 with FLAG [y/n] and fourth field with status (A-Active or I-inactive)

|6003| 1|N|A|
|6003| 1|N|A|
|6003| 1|Y|A|
|6003| 1|N|A|
|6003| 2|Y|A|
|6003| 2|N|A|
|6003| 2|Y|A|
|6003| 2|N|A|
|6003| 3|N|A|
|6003| 3|Y|A|
|6003| 3|N|A|
|6003| 4|Y|A|
|6003| 4|N|A|
|6003| 5|Y|A|
|6003| 5|N|A|
|6003| 6|Y|A|
|6003| 6|N|A|
|6003| 6|Y|A|
|6003| 8|Y|A|

 


Output report


REPORT                         TOTAL REPORT               PGM-NAME

 6003          001         SUB-DIV1                 Y             15

               006         SUB-DIV6                 Y            269  
               006         SUB-DIV6                 N          3,740  
               008         SUB-DIV8                 N          3,061  

               
                TOTAL STORE 6003   INBOUND ITEMS     7,789
                TOTAL STORE 6003   OUTBOUND ITEMS    1,190
                TOTAL STORE 6003   ITEMS             8,979
     
...
...
...
.
     
INVENTORY GRAND TOTAL           =                      38,415,086  
INVENTORY INBOUND GRAND TOTAL   =                      12,853,600  
INVENTORY OUTBOUND GRAND TOTAL  =                      25,561,486    


Input file contains millions of records in which field 1 hold several other store # records. In order to achieve the desired result, I will use DFSORT "SUM" (third field from the input file) for every dept under store # to get the records counts based on FLAG [Y/N]. Also how to display the store # for the very first record in the report. How to generate that report by grouping the field # 1(store), field #2 (dept) for every flag value (field #3).

Appreciate any hints. Thanks for your time.

Don't use SUM. The sample data you have shown is in sequence. You don't want to SORT millions of records just to be able to use SUM.

Use OUTFIL reporting procedures. There are good examples in DFSORT Getting Started, and the full details in the DFSORT Application Programming Guide.

Hello,

You can also look at the tools provided by ICETOOL's DISPLAY operator. It comes with a good suite of commands which can be used to format and present data.

@BillyBoyo , The input file records will be in sequence order. Thanks Ai88 and billy. I will check on both OUTFIL as well ICETOOL.

Hi All,

I tried with DFSort and got the required output.

SORT FIELDS=(3,7,CH,A,64,01,CH,A)
OUTFIL REMOVECC,NODETAIL,
SECTIONS=(64,1,TRAILER3=(3,8,64,1,X,COUNT=(M10,LENGTH=6)))

6003| 1|N  30588
6003| 1|Y   4262
6003| 2|N  48284
6003| 2|Y  62343
6003| 4|N   9967
6003| 4|Y      8
6003| 6|N   7590
6003| 6|Y    285
6003| 8|N   2864
6003| 8|Y     77
6003| 9|N  18538
6003| 9|Y    410


Is there any option to display the value 6003 for first record alone and rest should be filled with blanks. Also I struck with displaying sub-total and total count. Already I am using TRAILER3 in getting the field 4 (in output report). If I use TRAILER1 to display sub total or total, I am getting the different Value.

Please do advice how to proceed on this.

*** Latest updates ***

I got the required report with final GRAND TOTAL. Still digging out to get the sub-total for every store. I am trying to use TRAILER2 to achieve it. But it is not working out.

 SORT FIELDS=(3,7,CH,A,64,01,CH,A)                        
  OUTFIL REMOVECC,NODETAIL,                                
  SECTIONS=(64,1,TRAILER3=(3,8,11:64,1,12:'|',            
                   X,COUNT=(M10,LENGTH=6))),              
  TRAILER1=(2/,6:'TOTAL COUNT OF THE FILE IS:', 2/,        
                 COUNT=(EDIT=(II,III,III,IIT),LENGTH=14))  
/*  



My output is

6084|28|  Y|     42                            
6087| 1|  N|  30493

6087| 2|  Y|  61542                            
6087| 3|  N|   1029

     TOTAL COUNT OF THE FILE IS:     6,384,656

    SUBTOTAL COUNT of 6087 IS :       201,347   
   
   
    TOTAL COUNT OF THE FILE IS:     6,384,656
     


output Field#1 should display the value for very first record. Field#2 with three-byte length and filled with prefix zeros. Any help on this would be great. thanks.

Topic locked - posted on another forum.
The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.
