I am running a SPLICE operation that is being preceded by 3 'COPY FROM/OUTREC' operations. However, only the first OUTREC set of statements are being acted on. The 2nd and 3rd set of statements are being ignored and consequently the 2nd and 3rd copy statements are not being formatted. The job is finishing successfully with no errors. However, when I glance at the //DFSMSG SYSOUT, the 2nd and 3rd set of OUTREC statements do not appear. Can anyone help?
Here is the JCL:

Hello,
Please post all of the sysout from this step as well. Also, check the JES outputs for any additional info and post any messages from the first or third JES otput.

Thanks for everyone's input.
In response to Dick's request, attached are the respective //TOOLMSG and //DFSMSG sysouts:

By looking at your DFSMSG and TOOLMSG all 3 COPY statements are executed.
Quote:
The 2nd and 3rd set of statements are being ignored and consequently the 2nd and 3rd copy statements are not being formatted.
If you are wondering why 2nd and 3rd is not executed then you are wrong. All the statements were executed without any errors or issues.
First copy - 6 lines
Second copy - 3 lines
Third copy - 7
The SPLICe read this 17 lines and processed and gave the output of 14 records.
We really dont know what is your input and what output you are expecting and what's your SPLICE logic.

Thanks for your input. I agree that all 3 copies were executed however, the 2nd and 3rd sets of OUTREC statements associated with the 2nd and 3rd copy statements appeared to have not executed. In other words the 2nd and 3rd copies took place without any associated reformatting taking place. Consequently, the SPLICE operation acted on an inadequately prepared dataset, and the end results were not the intended results. Aside from the fact that the reformatted dataset created by the OUTREC statements does not look as expected, another piece of evidence to this failure, is the DFSMSG sysout. I cut-and-pasted the DFSMSG SYSOUT in my prior post, and if one looks there they will see that by the CPY1CNTL, it displays its associated OUTREC statements (i.e. => OUTREC FIELDS=(1:3,29,30:51X). However, by the CPY2CNTL and CPY3CNTL statements, nothing is displayed, even though my JCL did have separate OUTREC statements for CPY2CNTL and CPY3CNTL. My guess is that SYNCTOOL (or they way I ran it) cannot handle multiple CNTL inputs. Anyway, I have found a work-around using OVERLAY but it is not my preferred solution.
