As stated earlier, we need information on the queries below to gain a better understanding.
We would like to have a complete understanding of the requirement before we can commit to it. Could you please elaborate on your exact requirements, ideally with some examples? Please show us a sample input file and desired output file along with DCB properties (lrecl, recfm). The examples that you show will help us understand the requirement more in depth.
The idea is to extend the use of JOINKEYS and REFORMAT so more than 2 files can be joined (like the SQL JOIN statement).
We kindly request you to provide the required information to help us proceed further.
