We can execute a proc from another proc. I tried and
executed sucessfully.
my job steps:
//PROCLIB JCLLIB ORDER=PROGMR.SIVANAIR.JCLLIB
//JOBLIB DD DSN=UAUT.NDVR.PGMLOAD,DISP=SHR
//STEP001 EXEC AUT001
first proc steps:
//AUT001 PROC
//STEP001 EXEC PGM=AUT0EMP,COND=(0,LE)
//EMPLOY1 DD DSN=PROGMR.SBPD.EMP.DATA.SAMPLE1,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//STEP002 EXEC AUT002
Second proc steps:
//AUT002 PROC
//STEP001 EXEC PGM=AUT0EMP
//EMPLOY1 DD DSN=PROGMR.SBPD.EMP.DATA.SAMPLE1,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*

Answer / guest
I did not know the answer and my interviewer said NO. Later
I tried and executed PROC from a PROC, three levels deep.
Manuals do not state any limit on PROC calling PROC, or nesting.

Answer / kingmanish
First of all what is a PROC.
Its just a set of reusable JCL statements.
Now calling PROC within a PROC will defeat the concept of
PROCs itself.
So if we call a PROC within a PROC it would work and we can
do that.
But that is not a good practice.
