JCL cannot loop -- you can copy step4 9 times in your job, or you can put step4 into a PROC and execute it 10 times. |

kanna,
Experiment with instream PROCs to get familiar with the concept of JCL procedures. Look at PROC and PEND statements in the JCL Reference manual. |

perform means performance, not the number of times a step is executed |

Let's take your side that it would do what is being asked, but what if pgm=XXXX does not know about "perform"? . "XXXX" must stand for any program, right? |

All the time im wondering what "Software engineer" means.
And JCL as "skill". |

Hello and welcome to the forum,

When offering a suggestion/solution, it would be best to also post the output from a successful execution of the "code". |
