Simple: When you debug with Batch Xpediter, Xpediter generates a batch job and executes it. When you use TSO Xpediter, there is no batch job. Xpediter simply loads the program and executes it.

Thanks a lot Ofer.
So in TSO debug, we need to provide the file details and all seperately.
In the case of batch expeditor, it will directly take from the job..
Am i right?

In TSO debug, you can also specify your job in the file list field and it will take the datasets from your job.

So for both types we can provide the job
Batch expeditor will run the jcl,uses the files in it and interactively help us to debug.
In tso expeditor, what is happening?
Please do reply. I am really confused

TSO Xpediter can get the datasets from the JCL and then you can debug interactively also.

So in a way there is no much difference.
TSO expeditor has many options to debug ( we can provide the files seperately OR it will take it from the jcl).
Batch expeditor has only one option..to give the JCL library from which it will take the jcl to run.
Am I right?
