Given a input file with duplicates how to remove the
duplicate records from the file using JCL?

Answer Posted / tidda

This can be done by using Sort.

1) If the first duplicate is to be kept, we use SUM
FIELDS=NONE

2) If none of the duplicates are to be kept, using SYNCTOOL
or ICETOOL, use the NODUPS option.
