The IEBGENER can be used to call one JCL from another JCL,
example:

//TEST003 JOB 'SORT002',MSGCLASS=X,CLASS=T
//*
//STEP001 EXEC PGM=IEBGENER
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=XXX.GENERAL.STUDY(TEST001),DISP=SHR
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR)
//SYSIN DD DUMMY

Here the TEST003 Job when submitted, we inturn submit the
JCL member XXX.GENERAL.STUDY(TEST001)
