You can do it using SYSIN parameter in JCl and ACCEPT in
COBOL-
JCL using SYSIN
//STEP01 EXEC PGM=CBLPRGM
//STEPLIB DD DSN=SOMETIME.DEMO.LOADLIB,DISP=SHR
//SYSIN DD *
This is a single parameter from STEP01 and SYSIN
/*
Cobol Pgm which uses this JCl
DATA DIVISION.
WORKING-STORAGE SECTION.
..........................
01 SYSIN-PARAMETER pic X(80) value SPACES.
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
..........................
ACCEPT SYSIN-PARAMETER from SYSIN
