Sorry I think I was not clear about my question. I was thinking that can we give 3rd column (Position 11) as the Record Identification or it should always be the First column to identify Header and Detail. I have given Record Id as Header_Id1='H' for the Header and Detail_Id1= 'D' for the detail. (F...

I have checked in the documentation but it was mentioned that all ...

Thank you all for the information. Not sure if the Fix pack is causing the problem because we use Fix Pack3 and when I read header and Detail separately (using two CFF stages) I am able to read the data properly. so I am thinking it might not be the problem with the Environment.

Thanks for the information Franklin. Yes, Mainframe team is sending this file from MainFrame to Unix using NDM. and I have been told that XLATE=NO will transfer the data without conversion from EBCDIC to ASCII so data will be transferred in EBCDIC format. I will check on the CFF stage settings of th...
