Hi,

The Best solution for this kind of query is to write separate JCL for each Job.

This type of query already post. Please make search of it.

narvapreddy, you were asked once already to clarify your request. All you've done is ask a slightly different question in the same vague manner.

First, what is a "jcl praorame"?

Either way, I think you need to read the "DFSMS/MVS V1R5 Utilities" manual, "Chapter 5.0 IEBEDIT" to answer your question.

A cobol prog can submitted by JCL JOB. A Job can contain Multiple steps. If you want to skip any of the step you have to use RD parameter in EXEC Statement. I feel this is correct answer..

Hi

superk is write the question is wrong since if a job contains jobs ,then if that job containg multiple jobs will run each job included in that will run respective i.e as a whole means it will not be apart of any other

but if job contains multiple steps they can be skiped by using COND
parameter in jcl

Hi narvapreddy

If ur question is to run step3 & step4 ONLY, then
My answer is,
i)In JOB statmt, add 'RESTART = STEP3'
ii)End of Step4 , add '//'

Hope this will help
