How do you create a temporary dataset? Where will you use them?
Answer Posted / guest
Temporary datasets can be created either by not specifying
any DSNAME or by specifying the temporary file indicator as
in DSN=&&TEMP. We use them to carry the output of one step
to another step in the same job. The dataset will not be
retained once the job completes.
