Through this method PARM=parameter keyword is mentioned on the EXEC statement in JCL. The supplied PARM should be received through an argument in MAIN PL/1 program & Further declared accordingly.

//STEP02 EXEC PGM=PL1PGM,
// PARM='20110423'


PL1PGM: PROC(PARM) OPTIONS(MAIN);

2- Through SYSIN

Through this method SYSIN statement followed by the parameter to be placed in the JCL. In the PL/1 program
