Answer / venkat

without specifying the value put a comma(,).

Ex:

//job00001 job ,,notify=&sysuid

Answer / nikita kekre

To avoid positional parameters,mark their presence with the
help of comma.
eg in Jobcard if i dnt wanna code accounting info and
programmer's name(both r positional parameters thn i cn
simple use commas)
//t12344J JOB ,,CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=A,NOTIFY=&SYSUID

Answer / pratim dasgupta

if only keyword parameters are coded! no need to give comma
even. if even one positional parameter is coded then comma
is necessary!!
