Introduction
Printing numeric fields, especially packed-decimal or binary (i.e. COMP-3 or COMP) requires special consideration. Also, signed, zoned-decimal fields will require special consideration. Most numeric fields will require some sort of editing before printing. This suite of programs provides examples of how a COBOL program may be used to properly print (or display) numeric fields.
The COBOL program is written using the IBM COBOL for OS/390 dialect and will also work with IBM Enterprise COBOL. A JCL member is provided to run the job as an MVS batch job on an IBM mainframe or as a project with Micro Focus Mainframe Express (MFE) running on a PC with Windows. A batch or command file is provided to run the job as a Windows batch job on a Wintel platform using Micro Focus Net Express.
We have made a significant effort to ensure the documents and software technologies are correct and accurate. We reserve the right to make changes without notice at any time. The function delivered in this version is based upon the enhancement requests from a specific group of users. The intent is to provide changes as the need arises and in a timeframe that is dependent upon the availability of resources.

Programming Objectives
This example illustrates the following functions.
| ||||
| Functions to be Described and Demonstrated |
Programming Input and Output
The input to the sample program is the Item Master file. On the Mainframe this is a VSAM, Key-Sequenced-Data-Set (or KSDS) and with Micro Focus it is a Key-Sequenced or Indexed file. The output will be a printed report showing the item prices and quantity available. The item price is stored in the item master file in a packed-decimal format (i.e. COMP-3). The quantity available is calculated from two fields that are stored in the item master file in a binary (i.e. COMP) format. The quantity-available equals the quantity-on-hand minus the quantity-allocated.
Programming Requirements
This suite of samples programs will run on the following platforms.
| ||||||
| Operating Systems and Supporting Software |
Programming Overview
This program will sequentially read the item master file and build a print line of text from the text fields and numeric fields that are packed and binary formats. Once the print line has been created it will be printed. It is actually written to a sequential file (spooling) that contains print control characters and data.

Color Associations: The
Batch Job Scripts
A job script may be defined as a text file containing job setup information followed by job steps that identify programs to be executed along with parameters unique to the job step. A job script may be created using a text editor. The naming convention and content of a job script is determined by the Operating System. A simple job script may contain a single job step that performs a single function. A typical job script will contain multiple job steps executed in a predefined sequence. The status of each job step may be tested at the end of each job step.
Command File
The following is the Windows CMD (NUMPRTE1.cmd) required to run the sample COBOL program. This is a two step job. The first step (identified by the :DeleteQSAM statement) will delete the file that was created from a previous run of this job. The second step (identified by the :CreateQSAM statement) will execute the sample program.

JCL Member
The following is the JCL member (NUMPRTJ1.jcl) required to run the sample COBOL program in a mainframe-oriented environment. This is a two step job. The first step (identified by the //NUMPRTS1 statement) will delete the file that was created from a previous run of this job. The second step (identified by the //NUMPRTS2 statement) will execute the sample program.
The JOB and DD statements may need to be modified for different mainframe-oriented environments. The job may be executed on an IBM Mainframe System with ZOS or a Linux, UNIX or Windows System with Micro Focus Enterprise Server or Studio.

* NUMPRTC1 - Print text and various numeric field formats.
*
* DESCRIPTION
* -----------
* This set of programs is used to show the various numeric
* formats and how to edit for printing.
*
* This program illustrates the use of some of the commonly
* used numeric formats such as the display format(actual digits),
* the packed format (COMP-3) and the binary (COMP) formats.
*
* The COBOL programs are compiled with the ASSIGN(EXTERNAL)
* directive. This provides for external file mapping of file
* names.
*
* When running with Net Express the IBMCOMP an NOTRUNC directives
* will be required to maintain compatability with the mainframe
* format and field sizes for binary fields. The filetype(11) and
* ADV directive will be required to maintain the mainframe print
* format for the output file.
*
* This technique provides for the use of a single COBOL source
* program that will run on OS/390, Windows or Unix.
*
* This program will run on a Personal Computer with Windows
* and Micro Focus Net Express or Mainframe Express.
*
* This program will also run on an IBM Mainframe.

Summary
This suite of programs provides examples of how a COBOL program may be used to properly print (or display) numeric fields. This document may be used as a tutorial for new programmers or as a quick reference for experienced programmers.
In the world of programming there are many ways to solve a problem.

Company Overview
SimoTime Technologies was founded in 1987 and is a privately owned company. We specialize in the creation and deployment of business applications using new or existing technologies and services. We have a team of individuals that understand the broad range of technologies being used in today's environments. Our customers include small businesses using Internet technologies to corporations using very large mainframe systems.
Quite often, to reach larger markets or provide a higher level of service to existing customers it requires the newer Internet technologies to work in a complementary manner with existing corporate mainframe systems. We specialize in preparing applications and the associated data that are currently residing on a single platform to be distributed across a variety of platforms.
Preparing the application programs will require the transfer of source members that will be compiled and deployed on the target platform. The data will need to be transferred between the systems and may need to be converted and validated at various stages within the process. SimoTime has the technology, services and experience to assist in the application and data management tasks involved with doing business in a multi-system environment.
Whether you want to use the Internet to expand into new market segments or as a delivery vehicle for existing business functions simply give us a call or check the web site at http://www.simotime.com
