Hi Ramya,
There are 2 kinds of PROC
Instream and Catalog

Instream is written in the JCL itself and will be ended
with Pend

Catalog PROC's is written in another Member of the PDS and
called by the JCL

The Catalog PROC is more advantage because it can be used
by more than one JCL. so Generally most of the Companies
used Catalog Procs.
Hope this helps you

Thanks
