THE BELOW GIVEN IS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW TO SUBMIT A JCL FROM A
COBOL PGM:
============================================================
============
COBOL CODE WHICH HAS THE JCL STATEMENTS:
=========================================
IDENTIFICATION DIVISION.
PROGRAM-ID. PROG55.
ENVIRONMENT DIVISION.
INPUT-OUTPUT SECTION.
FILE-CONTROL.
SELECT IN-FILE ASSIGN DDFILE1
ORGANIZATION IS SEQUENTIAL
FILE STATUS IS IN-STATUS.
DATA DIVISION.
FILE SECTION.
FD IN-FILE.
01 IN-REC PIC X(80).
WORKING-STORAGE SECTION.
01 IN-STATUS PIC X(2).
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
OPEN OUTPUT IN-FILE.
DISPLAY IN-STATUS.
MOVE '//SORT002 JOB MSGCLASS=X,CLASS=T,' TO IN-
REC.
WRITE IN-REC.
MOVE '// MSGLEVEL=(1,1),NOTIFY=XXXXX'
TO IN-
REC.
WRITE IN-REC.
MOVE '//STEPDEF EXEC PGM=IEFBR14' TO IN-
REC.
WRITE IN-REC.
MOVE '//DATA1 DD DSN=TNL.PV.INTRDR.SAMF,DISP=
(NEW,CATLG),'
TO IN-
REC.
WRITE IN-REC.
MOVE '// LRECL=80' TO IN-
REC
WRITE IN-REC.
DISPLAY IN-STATUS.
CLOSE IN-FILE.
STOP RUN.
THIS IS THE JCL TO RUN THE ABOVE COBOL PGM 'PROG55' FROM
ENDEVOR LIBRARY.
Note: '//DDFILE1 DD SYSOUT=(*,INTRDR)' USED BELOW.
ALSO THE DDFILE1 IS USED AS THE DD NAME IN THE ABOVE COBOL
PGM

Answer / pradeep
Yes, can be very much done. Only thing is that the dataset
which contains this JCL statements should be mapped to the
JCL dd statement with INTRDR

Answer / guest
Using EXEC CICS SPOOL WRITE(var-name) END-EXEC command.
var-name is a COBOL host structure containing JCL statements.

Answer / ram.g
pgm looks gud...but is it possible to have the jcl in input
file rather than creating o/p file in pgm and use the input
file to submit the jcl..by assinging whatever *.intrdr's dd
name to the i/p file...

What is the function of //jcllib statement?
Please go thru the below points and let me know how to code this. 1. Sort the input dataset for the condition : Starting position is 37,length of the field is 13 based on character and in the ascending order , starting from position 25 length of 12 ,character and in the ascending order. Use a temporary dataset to hold the sorted file. 2. Use the temporary file created in the above step as the input for the next step. The next step is to execute a program and produce an output file. Use the temporary file created in the above as work file 1 and the output of the file to be created in this step work file 2.Also, pass a parameter to the program that is to be executed in this step. The parameter should have the current date in YYYYMMDD format. For the sake of convenience, you can use the below Job Name : Sample1 Input DSN : PCABDT11.CABD.TEST.INPUT Temporary DSN : Sort1 Output DSN : PCABDT11.CABD.TEST.OUTPUT Program Name : SAMPLE Thanks in Advance for your response.
