    Specification File Qualifier

    Defines the input record fields to be used for a sort or merge
    operation or in a conditional evaluation, or whose order or
    format will change in the output record. You identify each field

    its data type.

    You can also use /FIELD to define a constant and assign it a
    value of any valid sort/merge data-type for use in /KEY, /DATA,
    and /CONDITION statements.
