Answer / bhakti

It is used whenever data needs to be retrieved on the basis
of the other fields i.e. other than primary fields.
Supported by KSDS and ESDS only but not by RRDS and LDS
because they do not have any index component.
Not more than 253 AIX (Alternate Index) can be specified.

Please go thru the below points and let me know how to code this. 1. Sort the input dataset for the condition : Starting position is 37,length of the field is 13 based on character and in the ascending order , starting from position 25 length of 12 ,character and in the ascending order. Use a temporary dataset to hold the sorted file. 2. Use the temporary file created in the above step as the input for the next step. The next step is to execute a program and produce an output file. Use the temporary file created in the above as work file 1 and the output of the file to be created in this step work file 2.Also, pass a parameter to the program that is to be executed in this step. The parameter should have the current date in YYYYMMDD format.
