Hi
In Endevor, When we create a SCL action request, This request is submitted as a job dynamically created by the endevor.
The job card contains the primary job card informations like
the notify, time, class, msgclass, jobcard name,etc....

U can try submitting once such request like retrieving a production region element and see the job in sdsf to view the entire job.

COuld have provided the snap shot but my shop do not use endevor

regards
saurabh

I suppose(but I'm not an expert of endevor) that this is for the simple reason that endevor use progressive digits or character to avoid duplicate jobs, so it must create each time you entire jobcard.

I hope in this suggest.

The EXEC statements in the JCL would be produced by Endevor and the user should give the JOB CARD. JOB card contains a lot of personalised information like what saurabhu said. Endevor wouldn't be in a better postion than the user to give the JOB card info. Thats why in many tools like INSY, STROBE, FILEAID..we need to supply the JOB card info.
