The Actual data is in the format "0001-01-01"

Its a date but we have it as char in the source. When we use it as char in server it works fine.

Create a Shared container with a hash file for parallel

I need to use a hashfile which is a output from a serverjob as a shared container in parallel. My questions is 1) how can I create a container with only the hashfile ? 2) can I write the hashfile to a seq file and use it as a lookup file set ?, do I need to take any precautions when I am writing has...

Sorry.... I confused u Kumar, As you said, when there are new rows in the AFTER data it shows them as insert. But if the values in the existing rows are changed , how can I get those rows out ? ex: If this is the BEFORE data 111 aaa bbb 222 aaa bbb 333 yyy zzz And this is the AFTER data 111 aaa bbb ...

I tried it and when I select TRUE for the DROP OUTPUT FOR COPY option , It gives me the correct result with the CODES.

But I want the job to output the rows which are not present in the BEFORE data set and are present in the AFTER data set. ie: the updated rows.

Is there a option to do that ?

I think I'v confused you guys. The job I have to do is compare 2 sequential files (1 from DEV and 1 from PROD) and see if they are the same. If they are not the same and the records have different data then I have to write the data which is different into another Seq file. I am trying to use Change ...

I have about 60 columns , MGMT_NO is the key.

I have manually hardcoded the city name and zipext . So now when I select the option "Drop Output for Copy" to be "True" the job should write out the rows which have been hardcoded by me right ?
