Answer / fred
Just to make it clear ,
If job A triggers job B and job B in turn triggers job C.
Job A -> Job B -> Job C
If A abend for some reason,
Force completing the job A would mean that the job B would
start and the cycle complete.
It is like making the scheduler system believe that the
abended job has completed and you carry on with your schedule.
On the other hand, Cancelling the job A would mean that the
Job B would wait indefinitely for job A to finish which will
never happen.

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)???
