Hi vamseepotti,

To my understanding I think this will help you.

Method-1

We have to use SPOOL OPEN, SPOOL WRITE commands in the code. Declare your
JCL in working-storage sections.
Ex:
Code:
01 WS-JCl.
     05 WS-STMT-1 Pic X(80) value ' // Jobcard......"
     05 WS-STMT-2         PIC X(80) value '//step1 Exec pgm = .......'


In the procedure division use
EXEC CICS SPOOL OPEN, EXEC CICS SPOOL WRITE

(Here we have to use the 05 variables one by one). As soon as you issue the SPOOL CLOSE, the job will be submitted. PLease refer in the net for the exact syntax. I am not sure with the syntax.

Method-2

Write in a TDQ all the WS-STMTs as items. The last item to be written
should be a JCL delimiter. As soon as you write the delimiter into the
queue, the job will be submitted.


Hope I have answered your query correctly.
