I have a JCL that uses FILEAID utility to write records into a output file.When the input does'nt have records that satisfy the criteria of the FILE AID sysin the step gives a RC=08,this abends the job.

I do not want the job to abend due to empty output file.Can someone suggest how can I avoid this. icon_cool.gif

Hi Ketan

I thought the question was about FILEAID.

Neo.sara

A RC of 8 is not an abend code.
