The data in positions 280,11 is not zoned decimal 

Add this after sort fields 

INCLUDE COND=(280,11,ZD,EQ,NUM)       <-- States to only process zoned decimal 
data 

Look at WER054I for number records failing ZD test

Subject: SYNCSORT SUM of duplicates - What am I doing wrong please?

I am trying to summarize a count for duplicate-key records in a very large 
(14M+ records) RECFM=FB,LRECL=300 file using these control cards:

SORT FIELDS=(1,219,CH,A)
 SUM FIELDS=(280,11,ZD)
 INREC OVERLAY=(280,11,C'00000000001')

SYNCSORT is getting an 0C7 abend and I do not understand why.  Can anyone 
enlighten me what I am doing wrong here?

The bytes being overlaid are "filler" near the end of the record and are 
available to be used for counting duplicates.

TIA for any assistance you can provide.

Peter
