Hi Murali ,

Basically , I am making a tool which would take in some user input on ispf screen and based on that inputs , submit an ndm job which would in turn get triggered at 9:30 pm IST when the source files would be available.

As it is a tool , to be run on need basis , I wont be having access to any scheduler.

As for NDM , using the SB option ( which is submit Predefined process ) I can do the same on online screen , but that is NDM console screen . I wish to somehow replicate that using jcl..

Hope I have not confused more ...

When you submit your process in batch via the DMBATCH program, you can specify the start date/time for the process by using the STARTT keyword, either within the Process or when invoking the SUBMIT command.

The syntax is STARTT=(date|day,hh:mm:ssXM)

All of this is detailed in the Connect:Direct OS/390 User's Guide or the Connect:Direct Understanding Connect:Direct Processes Guide.
