I have learnt through Net that Debugging a Batch job
involves


1. Submit the job with the HOLD (*YES) parameter:
SBMJOB HOLD(*YES) or Hold the job queue that before
submitting the job
by using the HLDJOBQ command.


2. Determine the job name, user, and number of the submitted
job by using the WRKSBMJOB command.


3. Type the Start Service Job command on your screen:
STRSRVJOB JOB(job name/user/number)


4. Type the Start Debug command on your screen: STRDBG


5. Release the job in the jobq. Type WRKSBMJOB and then put
a 6
beside the job to be released and press enter, or, if the
job queue was
put on hold, release the job queue with the RLSJOBQ command.


6. A display appears when the job is ready to start, saying
that you
can now begin debugging the job. Press F10 to show the
Command Entry
display.


7. Now you can start debugging by entering an Add Break
Point command:
ADDBKP



8.ENDDBG


9.ENDSRVJOB





I tried this for RPG/400 Program and up to six steps of the
above it's ok,but for me no source is displayed and i typed
DSPMODSRC in Command line but still i can't see the sourceif
i press F.10 and enter command ADDBKP i don't know how to
add break points through it,usually i add break points using
F.6 for Interactive job debugs,but since this is batch i
don't know sir,Please help me out.
I was asked this question in a interview,i know only RPG/400
and i’m asking for debugging of RPG/400 program only sir.

not possible to debug BATCH RPG/400 JOB kindly help me out

If you try to debug a object which is present in qtemp,then you cannot even see the source for fixing break point.I have experienced the same earlier.

Q:Hi all,i want accurate answer with code using in built functions.please sent me code as soon as posible. I have program nmed PGM1 which '' RETRIEVE Current production date''should correctly default the production date for the user who is issuing raw materials to the manufacturing.The production date can be different from the celendra date. However, the program does not make the correct adjustment for all manufacturing plants. there is a parameter which determines the production start time e.g. 07:00 if the system time precedes this,the program subtracts one from the celendra day.This work fine when the celendar day starts after production day as it does in England,the system should be adding one to the celendar day during the overlap. unfortunately the program was desined to assumed the celendar day always starts before the production day. Change required in the program: Change the PROGRAM PGM1 to use the new parrameter to decide whether to add or subtract 1 from the celendar day when determining the production date.
