PFU0670E - FOUND MULTIPLE CCSIDS FOR COLUMN TYPE CHAR COLUMN

or

Or PFU0670E - FOUND MULTIPLE CCSIDS FOR COLUMN TYPE TIMESTMP COLUMN 

... 

Environment

Release:
Component: PFU

Resolution

This happens if the SELECT clause joined two or more tables and the encoding scheme was different for one or more of the tables in the JOIN or the SELECT contains multiple encoding schemes as in this example:

 

SELECT SUBSTR(CAST(TSNAME AS VARCHAR(24) CCSID EBCDIC),1,8),  COMPRESS                                                            

FROM SYSIBM.SYSTABLEPART WITH UR; 

 

To fix this either:    

                        

a) Use a 'EBCDIC' keyword in the SYSIN stream  before the SELECTs in question;                                        

 

FASTUNLOAD                                                  

...                                                          

OUTPUT-FORMAT DSNTIAUL                                      

EBCDIC                      <= Note                                

SELECT SUBSTR(CAST(TSNAME AS VARCHAR(24) CCSID EBCDIC),1,8),

...

 

or                                                                        

b) Use the same keyword ‘EBCDIC', as part of your PFU parmlib member used for the PFU execution.
