In below PROC
symbolic parameter is used and for every parameter valued is passed from JCl except OUTCLS and it's syntax is diffrent from other parmeter.
Could u anyone help me regarding this?


//GBXEXEC2 PROC OUTCLS='(,)',PWFTP=,
// PWEXEC=,PRCSCMD=,
// FTPCMD=,FTPFILE=,
// LOGDCB='(LRECL=250,RECFM=FB,BLKSIZE=27250)'
//REXEC EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01,DYNAMNBR=30,REGION=4000K
//STEPLIB DD DSN=TSS.VSPASCAL.PROD.SAMPRUN2,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=&OUTCLS,DCB=RECFM=FBA
//SYSTSPRT DD DUMMY
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=&OUTCLS
//SYSIN DD DUMMY,DCB=BLKSIZE=80
//SYSTSIN DD DSN=&PWEXEC,DISP=SHR

In the PROC declaration, you can give default values in case the parameter is not given in the EXEC PROC.
If parameter OUTCLS is omitted, it will receive the value '(,)'
Code:
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=(,),DCB=RECFM=FBA
...
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=(,)
