Priyanka,
If I got your post correctly, you wanted to pass a value from one job to another job (i.e. both the jobs are noway related). I dont think this is possible, as the resource used by jobs gets released upon completion.

as suggested by Shobana.
Corrections in this regard are welcome. |

If you want to pass a value from a program in job1 to the JCL of job2, here's an example to pass the current date that could be used in a dataset name:
1. in job1, create a file [e.g., a PDS member DSN=TEST.SYMB(DATEMEM)]with the line:
// SET DATENODE=D070322
2. in job2, include the line at the top:
// INCLUDE TEST.SYMB(DATEMEM)
3. in job2, have a line:
//DD1 DD DSN=TEST.DSET.&DATENODE |

Doesn't this mean you are using dataset for passing the value to job2? |

| Yes - just a way to pass data to JCL rather than a program. It seemed a good opportunity to answer a different but related question. |

By using Data set u can pass the data form one jcl1 to another Jcl2
whatever the data calculated in Program1 which is executed by JCL1 write into the one o/p dataset
the same data set which is came from JCL1 , u can use as a i/p in the 2nd JCL2 and then use it in program which is executed by Jcl2 |
