As few answered for VSAM file dedup, I will explain for PS flat files,

1) Make sure your file is sorted either Ascending or descending using SORT.

2)FIRST-READ PARA
READ INPUT-FILE INTO WS-ARRAY()
UNTIL EOF
ARRAY-COUNT=ARRAY-COUNT + 1

3)PERFORM COMPARE-PARA VARYING I FROM 1 BY 1 UNTIL I < ARRAY-COUNT
IF WS-ARRAY(I)=WS-ARRAY(I+1) THEN
WRITE DUPLICATE-RECORDS
ELSE
WRITE NODUPLICATE-RECORDS
END-PERFORM
