Column 29-32 
Output Record Length for Record-Out Sorts 

Columns 29-32 apply to Record-out (SORTR) jobs only.  The entry in these
columns tells the program the length of records in the final sorted file.

When control fields are not being dropped, the length must include both
control and data field lengths.  Include only the data field lengths when
the control fields are being dropped.  (Note that the sum of your control
field and data field lengths should not exceed the maximum work record
length limit of 1000 bytes.)
