Answer / anil sana
You can do that using IEBEDIT. Pls read JCL manual for more
details. I am citing an example below.
The member XXXXX in SYSUT1 contains the job and steps to be
executed.
//STEP0001 EXEC
PGM=IEBEDIT
//SYSPRINT DD
SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD
SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=ANIL.SANA(XXXXX),DISP=SHR
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=
(*,INTRDR)
//SYSIN DD
*
EDIT START=ANILPROC,TYPE=INCLUDE,STEPNAME=
(STEP2,STEP4,STEP3,STEP5......)

Answer / pradeep
See below the exact code for your requirement: Here TEST001
contains your actual JCL to be executed
//Job Card
//STEP001 EXEC PGM=IEBEDIT
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=XXX.GENERAL.STUDY(TEST001),DISP=SHR
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR)
//SYSIN DD *
EDIT TYPE=INCLUDE,STEPNAME=(STEP01,STEP02,STEP04)
/*
//STEP002 EXEC PGM=IEBEDIT
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=XXX.GENERAL.STUDY(TEST001),DISP=SHR
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR)
//SYSIN DD *
EDIT TYPE=INCLUDE,STEPNAME=(STEP03,STEP05,STEP06)

Answer / manohar (techmahindra)
In JCL one key word parametor is there that is DPRTY.It can
be done by using DPRTY(Value1,Value2) in the
job step,
hear Value1 allwawys 15
DPRTY=(15*15)=255
yOU CAN INCRESE Value2 value based on your requirment,You
can execute up to 255 steps in your JOB.
eg.,
//MANOHAR JOB 'TECHMAHINDRA'
//**
//STEP01 EXEC PGM=A ,DPRTY=(15*6)
//STEP02 EXEC PGM=A ,DPRTY=(15*5)
//STEP03 EXEC PGM=A ,DPRTY=(15*3)
//STEP04 EXEC PGM=A ,DPRTY=(15*4)
//STEP05 EXEC PGM=A ,DPRTY=(15*2)
//STEP06 EXEC PGM=A ,DPRTY=(15*1)
//**
//
By doing this according to there dispatching priority
each
step will be executed,
first it will execute step01,02,04,03,05,06

Answer / piyush mani
in this case we can either use
iebedit utility or
dprty
but using eibedit is better option bcoz it wont affect the main jcl

Answer / neha
we do use the code mentioned by the person who answered
first but we don't include step3 and step4 at one go.in
first step we include step 1 and 4 and then in the next
step we include step3 but the coding we use is the same.
for both steps....

Answer / nagaraj
It can be done by using DPRTY(dispatching priority) in the
job step,
eg., code dprty = (15*12) + 16 in step02
dprty = (15*07) + 06 in step03
dprty = (15*10) + 16 in step04
dprty = (15*05) + 04 in step05
dprty = (15*04) + 03 in step06.
by doing this according to there dispatching priority each
step will be executed,
first it will execute step01,02,04,03,05,06
