Hi All,

Is it possible to change parameter values dynamically in a JCL without human intervenction?
Can the job scheduler do date arithmetic to determine the value that it needs to dynamically included in the JCL?

Thanks Kevin. Do you mean to say this can be acheived only with the help of ReXX?

Thanks
Reshma

Well, you haven't as of yet mentioned what job scheduling system you're using. Most likely, though, yes, the scheduling system would need this process to be coded in REXX.
