EIBEDIT is used to execute particular steps
Ex. if u have 10 steps and u want to execute only 1.5,8
steps only with out any condition. In this situation we can
use EIBEDIT

ASN: write all steps in one saparate PDS member and then
create another PDS member write JOB CARDS give PGM=IEBEDIT
in sysout give like

PGM=IEBEDIT
DDNAME DD DSN=(DATA SET ALONG WITH PDS MEMBER(where we write
all the steps)
SYSOUT DD (*,INTRDR)
SYSIN DD *
EDIT TYPE=INCLUDE,STEPNAME=(STEP1,STEP5,STEP8)
/*
//

Adding to Girish Answer.
The jcl for IEBEDIT utility would look like this.
//Jobcard
//Stepname exec pgm=IEBEDIT
//DDNAME DD DSN=PDS(WHICH CONTAIN THE JCL)
//Sysout DD sysout=(*,Intrdr)
//sysprint dd sysout=*
//sysin dd *
EDIT start=Jobname, Type=Include/exclude,
Stepname=(steps)
/*
//
Hope this will give the complete syntax of IEBEDIT utility.

Suppose a proc step has a DD statement like //ABC DD DSN=TEST.FILE1,DISP=SHR DSN=TEST.FILE2,DISP=SHR and the above DD name is overridden from the JCL as given below //procstepname.ABC DD DSN=TEST.FILE3 - Will the DD statement now have just TEST.FILE3 or it will be TEST.FILE3 and TEST.FILE2? Suppose if it is overridden twice like //procstepname.ABC DD DSN=TEST.FILE3 //procstepname.ABC DD DSN=TEST.FILE4 Will this give a JCL error? If not, what will be final output?
