Hey everyone - happy Monday!
I am trying to come up with a single SORT step to give me counts and a
sum of a field on subsets of data, and using control breaks. Here is a
sample of my input with lines shortened for the email:
A01DDATE 001D<< Cols 23 to 101 MISCELLANEOUS DATA >> 10
2
A01DDATE 001W<< Cols 23 to 101 MISCELLANEOUS DATA >> 93
2
A01MEXTRA 047D<< Cols 23 to 101 MISCELLANEOUS DATA >> 3
2
A01MEXTRA 022P<< Cols 23 to 101 MISCELLANEOUS DATA >> 5
2
A01MEXTRA 019R<< Cols 23 to 101 MISCELLANEOUS DATA >> 35
2
A02QTRAN 103D<< Cols 23 to 101 MISCELLANEOUS DATA >> 802
2
A02QTRAN 014R<< Cols 23 to 101 MISCELLANEOUS DATA >> 9
2
A02QTRAN 012T<< Cols 23 to 101 MISCELLANEOUS DATA >> 41
2
A02QTRAN 083V<< Cols 23 to 101 MISCELLANEOUS DATA >> 12
2
A02ZHORIZ 023D<< Cols 23 to 101 MISCELLANEOUS DATA >> 456
2
A02ZHORIZ 011P<< Cols 23 to 101 MISCELLANEOUS DATA >> 81
2
A02ZVERTICAL 011D<< Cols 23 to 101 MISCELLANEOUS DATA >> 773
2
A02ZVERTICAL 003M<< Cols 23 to 101 MISCELLANEOUS DATA >> 1
2
This is the layout:
1 - len 3, Dept
19 - len 3, numeric
22 - len 1, Indicator
23 - len 77, miscellaneous
102 - len 9, Counter
111 - len 19, miscellaneous
What I want to do is produce a single line for each Department (cols
1-3), that tells me the number of articles (Count of all rows with a
numeric value in cols 19-21, and an Indicator in col 22 of "D"), and a
sum of the Counter (cols 102-110, pic 999999999), with a grand total. It
will look like this:
Department A01: 2 articles, total items: 13 (# =
suppressed zeros)
Department A02: ######3 articles, total items: #######2031
*** TOTAL *** : ######5 articles, total items: #######2044
I can get the count to work through a simple sum, but I can't get the
number of articles to break on the Department code (there could be
1-to-n departments in each file).
Can someone help me with what should be fairly simple here?
Thank you and best regards,
Billy Ashton
