Answer / praveen kumar bejjanki
We can have several job card's in a single JCL. when you
submit this jcl it won't give any abend. the jobs are
executed based on the jobname, suppose if all the jobs have
the same name then they are executed on the way they are
submitted, if the job names are unique then they are
executed based on the class, priority assigned to that job.
even if both the class, priority is same for all the jobs
which have a unique jobnames then they are executed in the
way each job is submitted.
Correct me if i am wrong....

if u submit it in my opinion it shud not give any errors as
it is allowed and i think every job would get its own
unique JES number and u cn view each one of them on the
spool according to their JES number....

Answer / anurag
It will show the JCL error , as there should be only one
job card for each job,
multiple jobs can not be kept in a single member with
multiple Job cards,
Each jobs should be placed in a different member with only
one job card,
For each Job Job card will be only one and multiple steps
could be there up to the no of 255.
