Description:
Are there any technical specifications available for the file record layout of the output file from the acq-21 process (Banner/FRS Export)? I'm looking for field names, order, length, type, etc.

Resolution:
We see this in the ./butil/b_acq_21_b_banner.cbl program:

MOVE BANNER-HEAD TO REC-OUT (1: 70).
MOVE BANNER-GEN-INV TO REC-OUT (71: ).

MOVE 174 TO REC-OUT-SIZE
WRITE REC-OUT.

The BANNER-HEAD looks like this:

01 BANNER-HEAD.
02 BANNER-HEAD-SYS-ID PICTURE X(8).
02 BANNER-HEAD-FILE-ID PICTURE X(8).
02 BANNER-HEAD-VENDOR-ID PICTURE 9(9).
02 BANNER-HEAD-VENDOR-NAME PICTURE X(30).
02 BANNER-HEAD-VENDOR-INVOICE-NO PICTURE X(15).

And the BANNER-GEN-INV, like this:

01 BANNER-GEN-INV.
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-TYPE PICTURE 9(1).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-TYPE-SEQ PICTURE 9(4).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-VENDOR-INV-DATE PICTURE 9(8).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-TRANS-DATE PICTURE 9(8).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-BASE-AMT PICTURE X(13).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-GST-AMT PICTURE X(13).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-QST-AMT PICTURE X(13).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-ADD-CHG-AMT PICTURE X(13).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-TAX-DIST-METHOD PICTURE X(1).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-GST-RBT-OVER PICTURE 9(3).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-QST-RBT-OVER PICTURE 9(3).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-TAXGRP-OVER PICTURE X(4).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-CURR-CODE PICTURE X(4).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-CR-MEMO-IND PICTURE X(1).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-DISC-IND PICTURE X(1).
02 BANNER-GEN-INV-DISC-OVER-CODE PICTURE X(2).
02 FILLER PICTURE X(9).
02 FILLER PICTURE X(2).
02 FILLER PICTURE X(2).

If you need the same for FRS, that's in the ./butil/b_acq_21_b_frs.cbl program (and the ./source/copy/FRS... copybooks).
