Hi,

Our shop uses "SYNCSORT FOR Z/OS 1.3.2.2R" and I have made these attempts after searching this forum but don't get satisfactory results.

Attempt-1:

In one place you use UFF in another ZD for the same data.

What do you want the output to look like? Do you want to COPY or SORT?

[papadi]

As you want negative numbers, i suspect you want SFF (signed) rather than UFF (unsigned)?

Hi,

I am trying to convert the input to its negative values based on a condition. If any input is greater than 500 then it should be converted to its negative value.

Thanks.

Which of my two questions did you answer to clarify what you've already attempted?

[William Collins]

Is that P a typo?

Here is what I see with HEX ON -

[William Collins]

OK. we're going in circles.

You want the output SORTed, and you only want the -ve values?

If you don't want that, please show your sample input and the expected output for that, in the order that you expect it, showing -ve and +ve values if present.

You've shown attempting just about everything, and have not said what it is that you want, or shown completely and clearly what you want to happen. You're doing something simple, but without knowing what output you want for your input, it is "difficult" to help.

Show 10 input values and the output valjues hyou want when these are processed.

Also show any key datathat the file neds to be sequenced by (if anyu).
