Mainframe technologies JCL part test

Task background:

Using transaction files sent from card terminals and ATMs located at one of local supermarkets, you need to produce aggregated transaction file. This file should include only those transactions that were made by our VUBA Bank client cards.

Files for your JCL input:

Transaction files:

·         KC02677.STUD.DATA.LEDOATM

·         KC02677.STUD.DATA.LEDOVISA

·         KC02677.STUD.DATA.LEDOMAST

·         KC02677.STUD.DATA.LEDOPDQ

VUBA Bank client card numbers:

·         KC02677.STUD.DATA.OURCARDS

Tasks (order in which you will implement these tasks is not important):

1.       Merge all transaction files into single file. Give a meaningfull name for it, something like: KC03%%%.DATA.TRAN.MERGED (2 points)

2.       Sort and aggregate transaction file. Note that transaction amount is written in packed decimal format, so you would need yo use PD option in your control statement. Transaction amount starts at column 64 (2 points)

3.       Produce two files which will contain aggregated transactions made by our VUBA Bank clients and others. Give files a meaningful name, something like: KC03%%%.DATA.TRAN.FINAL.OURCARDS, KC03%%%.DATA.TRAN.FINAL.OTHER (2 points)

4.       Create procedure to which you could pass needed input and output file names to get this final transaction file (2 points)

5.       If any of the steps in JCL returns RC > 0, then branch to ERROR step and produce RC 20 from it (2 points)

For every step number please provide executed JOBNAME and JOBID, Location of the OUTPUT Datasets and location of JCL
