If the proc stepname is excluded while overriding the COND,
TIME, REGION and PARM parameters while calling the proc,
will the override only apply to the first step in the proc
or all the steps for all the above parameters?

Answer Posted / aeon533

You may exclude. It depends whether you want to override
any parameter for the whole proc or for a specific procstep.
If you want to do it for a particular step then the format
is COND.PROCSTEP = value. If you want to do it for whole
proc then you may use unqualified overriding parameters
like EXEC PROC TIME= , REGION = etc but the parameters are
to be in the same order as they are in the actual proc.

I have a cobol db2 program(PGM A) where other program (PGM B) will call this program and passes some 50 fields data to PGM A. PGM A has some layout in which it receives the data from PGM B. And this layout has been copied in the linkage section pf PGM A. After getting the data, PGM A writes the data in a flat file in the same layout which it receives from PGM B. PGM B is a simple COBOL pgm. Please provide a JCL to run these programs.
