sed command, how to insert a newline 1

[pho01]

In the $Statusfile, i want to replace XX-${UNIQUEID}-XX to Pending + new line. How do you insert a newline on this? (/"Pending"/)

cat ${STATUSFILE} | sed -e s/"XX-${UNIQUEID}-XX"/"Pending"/ > ${RUNDIR}/status.new

Thanks

try

cat ${STATUSFILE} | sed -e s/"XX-${UNIQUEID}-XX"/"Pending\n"/ > ${RUNDIR}/status.new

or
cat ${STATUSFILE} | sed -e s/"XX-${UNIQUEID}-XX"/"Pending^M"/ > ${RUNDIR}/status.new

to get the control M try control V then control M
