Instream and Catalog procedure
Catalog Procedures:
A cataloged procedure is a set of JCL statements that are stored as a member in a partitioned data set.
Multiple jobs can invoke and use the same catalog procedure.
The main reason for using catalog procedures is to avoid coding the same JCL again and again.
Pend statement is optional in catalog procedure. So you do not need to code it in your JCL.
Instream Procedures:
The EXEC statements between the PROC and PEND statements are not executed when they are first encountered in the job stream. Instead, they are saved as a procedure to be called later.
