Does anyone know of another alternative?

Python and xlsxwriter?

For writing CSVs, there is Python's built-in csv module. XlsxWriter is
potentially an "even better" solution, but it also could be much, much
worse (for example, if the resulting file is not meant to be opened in
Excel but rather processed by some other program which is really
counting on receiving CSV and not able to cope with a true Excel
workbook).

CPYTOIMPF has an option to remove blanks, prompt the command and hit F9 and scroll down

This is clearly the simplest option, if it satisfies the requirements.
It all depends on how strict the requirements are. At least on 7.1,
the RMVBLANK(*TRAILING) option leaves one blank for empty fields.
