You could do it with Co:Z Batch + Dataset Pipes without creating a
temporary file:
//SHELL EXEC PGM=COZBATCH
//IN DD DISP=SHR,DSN=...
//OUT DD DISP=(NEW,CATLG),DSN=...,
// DCB=(RECFM=VB,LRECL=27994),SPACE=....
//STDIN DD *
fromdsn -b //DD:IN |
todsn -b -l l4 //DD:OUT
//
Now, if you meant "flat file" as a Unix file, then just:
//STDIN DD *
todsn -b -l l4 //DD:OUT < /path/to/my.flat.file
//
