If the main program has:
CALL 'subprog' USING ...
The program usually uses a static call.
This also depends on the link options used.

If the main program has:
01 subprog-name PIC X(7) VALUE 'SUBPROG'
CALL subprog-name USING ...
The program uses a dynamic call.

No change is needed to the execution JCL, except in a dynamic call the called subprogram must be in the steplib or joblib.
