Hello,
We currently use customised translate tables in our FTP processes, is there a way we can do this in CozSFTP?
If there is can can you provide me with a sample , please.
Regards.
Utilise Customised Translate Tables
In Co:Z SFTP we can use either z/OS Unicode Services or iconv() for character conversion.
Starting with z/OS 1.9, iconv() uses Unicode Services under the covers.
You can customize your own translate tables using z/OS Unicode services.
Here's a link to a thread on IBM-MAIN which discsussed it - look at the post by John McKown for some helpful information on getting started:

Once you get your user tables into z/OS Unicode services, first test that you can use them with the z/OS Unix "iconv" command.
Once this works, you can force Co:Z SFTP to use iconv() by setting the environment variable: "COZ_FORCE_ICONV=yes", or as an alternative you can prefix one of the codepage names with an underscore.
Customizing Unicode services is pretty tricky, but if you can get this done and test your table with the iconv command, then it is pretty easy to get Co:Z SFTP to use it - we'll be glad to help with the last part
