yes we can.
do you need a sample code or explanation for the same.

In all our JOB Statement we have always COND=(4,LT) defined. Nevertheless when a Job failed the last step should then be executed (send a message to an user). Due to we don't like to change all our JOB's (ca. 2000), we are looking for a simply solution.

If a field is declared as a comp-3 field and if we want to sort a dataset based on this field, then how will the sort card be??? e.g- if we want to sort by a field which is defined as a PIC X(5) then we will mention - sort fields=(1,5,ch,a). Likewise if a field is defined as PIC S9(10)COMP-3 then in this case how will the sort field be defined (because in this case a sign is also involved)???

My JCL has 4 steps that execute PROC’s P1, P2, P3 and P4 as shown below //P1 EXEC PROC=P1 //P2 EXEC PROC=P2 //P3 EXEC PROC=P3 //P4 EXEC PROC=P4 There are four steps S1, S2, S3 and S4 in each PROC’s (i.e. P1, P2, P3 and P4) I want to execute only step S2 of PROC P2 and no other steps or PROC’s. How do you achieve this?

I have a Symbolic Parameter which can have a value say 01 or 02 etc. Now consider i have another Symbolic parameters which is used to get 3 digit code of months (JAN, FEB, etc) but for that i need to check the first symbolic parameter's value and provide its corresponding month's name in the second symbolic parameter. Say IF sym1 = 01 then sym2='Jan' ENDIF etc... In JCL, IF condition is used for RC, ABEND purposes of a step etc. When i use Symbolic parameter in IF clause it is showing Error message. Is there a way to get the above result possible in JCL. If you could provide me with an example, i would understand it better.
