Answer / adarsh

we can execute selected steps using iebedit utility..

//sysin dd *
edit type = include,stepname=(step2,step5,step7)
//

Answer / muttiah

@Adarsh:

That will be useful when we want to copy steps from a JCL
directly, not from a PROC.

@ NaliniNayak:
Using restart you can point to step2 of a proc as below.
//RESTART=PROCSTEP.STEP2 in the job card.

Code Cond=(0,LE) for all the steps you want to skip..Say in
our case it's 3,4,6,8 and 9th step in proc.

Answer / krish123

we can use COND code in order to execute this. Use condition
code in each step
//JOBNAME JOB ACCT, RESTART=PROCA.STEP2 ---> INORDER TO
EXECUTE THE PROGRAM FROM STEP2
//PROCA EXEC PROCA

//STEP1 EXEC PGM=PROGRAM1
//STEP2 EXEC PGM=PROGRAM2,COND=(0,LT,STEP1)
//STEP3 EXEC PGM=PROGRAM3,COND=(0,GT,STEP2)
//STEP4 EXEC PGM=PROGRAM4,COND=(0,GT,STEP3)
//STEP5 EXEC PGM=PROGRAM5,COND=(0,LT,STEP4)
//STEP6 EXEC PGM=PROGRAM6,COND=(0,GT,STEP4)
//STEP7 EXEC PGM=PROGRAM7,COND=(0,LT,STEP6)
//STEP8 EXEC PGM=PROGRAM8,COND=(0,GT,STEP7)
//STEP9 EXEC PGM=PROGRAM9,COND=(0,GT,STEP8)
//STEP10 EXEC PGM=PROGRAM10,COND=(O,GT,STEP9)

When we use conditional statement in JCL using if-then-else-endif, IF statement is true, the step is bypassed or executed?

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.

1) SORT FIELDS=(20,4,CH,D,10,3,CH,D) OUTREC FIELDS=(7:20,4,C' FUTURE ',20,2,10,3,1Z,1,9,13,7, 24,57,TRAN=LTOU,6X'FF') This example illustrates how a fixed-length input data set can be sorted and reformatted for output. The SORTIN LRECL is 80 bytes. The reformatted output records are fixed length with a record size of 103 bytes. SOLRF (the IBM-supplied default) is in effect, so unless the SORTOUT LRECL is specified or available, it will automatically be set to the reformatted record length of 103. in the above example i have some doubts that a) sort fields=(20,4,CH,D,10,3,CH,D) -what exactly it does and this fields related to output record fields or input record fields b)outrec used to refprmat the records after sorting that means could please reply me as soon as possible Thanks.
