Answer / harsha

Use DPRTY parameter. With this parameter, we can change the
order of execution of each steps but we cannot skip the
execution.

Answer / muttaiah

What i understand from question is
After executing 4th step you want to execute 3rd step.

In JCL.
We can execute steps only sequentially meaning steps mentioned in the job has to be executed in the way they are.

So as far as my knowledge this is impossible.

one way is if the job execution is stopped after 4th step. you can then execute from any step using restart.
