UNIQUE - Its file level keyword in PF. If you specify this
keyword then duplicate key values are not allowed in PF.

allowed in cusno field
PFILE: Its logical file keyword to specify the Physical
file name.
REF: To specify the file name where the field discriptions
are present.

unique keyword is file level keyword you can use physical file as well as logical file also if you use the unique keyword then you prevent the duplicate value in particular filed and one more necessary condition file should be keyd.
pfile : That keyword is logical file keyword its record level keyword through we can create the logical file .
syntax for that keyword : pfile(physical file name).
ref: this keyword is file level keyword we can use only taking the field attribute reference .
syntax for that keyword :ref(lib/file/rcdname)
