Can there be 2 job statements in a JCL? If yes what is the purpose of doing tha?..

Yes definately....For example you can combine both the
compile jcl and run jcl under one common jcl..

Regarding your 2nd question its quite childish to put up
such questions. You can tell that maybe saving some time
and space.

Answer / mr.perfect

we can use two job statement in single JCL, i think it is
not necessary to use two job statements in single JCL,
because a single job can execute compile and RUN jcl with
single JOB statements.
