In the catalogued PROC, the 3rd dataset can be overridden
like below.
ORIGINAL CODE IN CATALOGUED PROC:
*********************************
//S01 DD DSN=A.B.C.D1,DISP=SHR
// DD DSN=A.B.C.D2,DISP=SHR
// DD DSN=A.B.C.D3,DISP=SHR
// DD DSN=A.B.C.D4,DISP=SHR
// DD DSN=A.B.C.D5,DISP=SHR
//
...
OVERRIDDING 3RD CONCATENATED DATASET IN CATALOGUED PROC:
******************************
//PRCN.S01 DD
// DD
// DD DSN=A3.B3.C3.D3,DISP=SHR
// DD
// DD
//
...

by using symbolic parameters u can override the 3rd DSN.

Calling catalog proc
Pass the symbolic parameter name to C while executing
proc(CATPROC)
//STEP1 EXEC CATPROC,C=NAME2
------------------------------------
Catlaog Proc
Here third dataset name which was "THIRD.FILENAME" earlier
will get overridden with "NAME2.FILENAME"
//CATPROC PROC A=FIRST,B=SECOND,C=THIRD,D=FOURTH,E=FIFTH
//STEP2 EXEC PGM=PGM1
//DFILES DD DSN=&A..FILENAME
DD DSN=&B..FILENAME
DD DSN=&C..FILENAME
DD DSN=&D..FILENAME
DD DSN=&E..FILENAME

Use symbolic parameter.
Ir use following syntax
//STEP1.DD3 DD dsn='dataset name'
where STEP1 is step name and DD3 is dd statment name is
procedure
