When TYPRUN=SCAN is given, jcl errors are not shown in the job output queue.
For eg : This is the job :-
//IDCAMS JOB 7220,'JEXEC',CLASS=T,MSGCLASS=T,NOTIFY=&SYSUID,
// TYPRUN=SCAN
//STEP001 EXEC PGM=ICETOOL
//TOOLMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DFSMSG DD SYSOUT=*
//DD1 DD DSN=EBL.ZZTEST.BLD11XO1.PM8,DISP=SHR
//TOOLIN DD DATA
COUNT FROM(DD1) EMPTY
/*
DD1 file is not existing, so giving disp=shr gives jcl error 8 on doing !jck.
But when typrun=scan is given and job is submitted, following is the output queue :-
NP DDNAME StepName ProcStep DSID Owner C Dest Rec-Cnt PAGE
JESMSGLG JES2 2 GALAKAL T LOCAL 10
JESJCL JES2 3 GALAKAL T LOCAL 8
JESJCL is just showing JCL and JESMSGLG is not showing any erros.
Where is the result of JCL scanning (CC=8, disp=shr but file not found) ?

TYPRUN=SCAN checks the JCL only through the converter, not the interpreter.

For example, a data set name containing a qualifier that exceeds eight characters,
