Hi,

Is there a possibility for a DataSet stage in Parallel jobs to take input directly from a Sequential file

But the best practice would be to use a Copy Stage in between so that u will be able to save the mete data for both source and target.

No.

A File Set stage can be convinced to do this, but a Data Set stage no.

Even if the sequential file were in correct binary format, you have no mechanism for creating a (binary) Data Set control file.
