To your question "can you read my mind?" the answer is NO.
Now that this is clear, can you rephrase your other question? |

The 'general logic' should be determined during design time.
Using Job Control Language, one can provide each step with the appropriate parameters (dd statements in the case) to identify which ds is to be associated with which dd name, in order to allocate the correct file for each step. |

Hello,

The "first" part of the process "writes" data to a file (identified by some dd statement in the first step).
The "second" part of the process "reads" the data written by first step (identified by another dd statement in the second step).
The first step opens the file as output and writes to it. The second step opens the file as input and reads from it.
If you have some jcl you do not understand, post it along with your queston about it, and someone will be able to clarify. |

Hello,
That would depend on the specifics of the code writing the data. No one here can tell you where some process on your system gets input.
If you post the jcl, we may be able to make some determination, but it is not guaranteed.
The biggest part of getting help from the forum is posting enough info for us to use to help you. You have posted very little to help us help you. |

We don't know anything about your system ask your coworkers or your supervisor. |

We can only comment on what you provide. You have provided only the slightest hint at a question that we could help with.
From the little you have provided, Craig has the posted one of your choices (talk with someone in your organization).
Another choice would be to more clearly present some question here. We have answered what we believed to be your question.
Keep in mind that you know exactly what you are asking, but those who read your post may not.
I've removed several replies that were not really part of the topic. . . |

I've never used some "personal" information in my "Business- related input file", probably showing an example, what you have done & what do you want if you were not happy with the outcome of your act..might help.
