2 types
1. Instream and 2. Catalog proc
Instream proc: is the one which is coded with in the JCL
Catlg Prod: Which is coded in a member of a PDS and is
referenced in the JCl through the JCLLIB order stmt.
We can use max of 255 steps in a JCL. Each step can have
only 1 catlg proc. Hence 255 catlg proc can be used in a
JCL.
