Answer / swapnilkumar

Temporary data set can be accessed as mentioned below.

//STEP02 EXEC PGM=PGM1
//SYSOUT DD
SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD
SYSOUT=*
//INPCTL DD DSN=SYS1.PROD.CTLLIB(P89CTL),DISP=SHR
//DATEFILE DD DSN=P1.DATEFILE,DISP=SHR
//OUTCTL DD DSN=&&TMP01,DISP=
(NEW,PASS,DELETE),
// UNIT=PROD,SPACE=(TRK,
(10,10),RLSE),
// DCB=
(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=0)

This can be reffered in step 05 as:

//STEP05 EXEC PGM=FTP,PARM='(EXIT TIMEOUT 300'
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//OUTPUT DD SYSOUT=*
//INPUT DD DISP=SHR,DSN=SYS1.PROD.CTLLIB(P89CLT2)
// DD DSN=&&TMP01,DISP=SHR

Check for the &&TMP01 named temporary data set
