There are two steps in a JCl, the first one generates a
report while the second step send an email saying the
report has been generated, but the second steps should only
be executed when the report file is non-empty. How can it
be acheived. We may include steps in between.

Insert a IDCAMS step between the two step here is the Eg
//STEP01 EXEC PGM=IEBGENER
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=MY.SORT.FILE1,DISP=SHR
//SYSUT2 DD DSN=MY.SORT.FILE2,DISP=SHR
//SYSIN DD DUMMY
//*
//* Checking the File for any data
//*
//CHEKEMTY EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//MYFILE DD DSN=MY.SORT.FILE2,DISP=SHR
//SYSIN DD *
PRINT INFILE(MYFILE) CHARACTER COUNT(1)
//*
//* If above step gives RC=04 it means file1 is empty
//* so STEP02 would only execute if step CHEKEMTY has
//* RC Not equal to 04.
//STEP02 EXEC PGM=SASSTRLR,
// PARM='INACT',COND=(04,EQ,CHEKEMTY)
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
DEMAND ABCXYZ
//*
