proc step return code to override in proc itself

Hi, one of the step in my proc is completing with return code 4. This proc is called in one job. The job has last step as -

// IF RC > 1 THEN
//PROC99 EXEC abend routine
// ENDIF

And because of which my job is finally abending.

Any idea how to override the return code of that step in the proc itself. So that I do not need to modify the job at all.

I tried giving -
IF STEP010.RC=04 THEN
SET LASTCC=01
ENDIF

but that did not help. I tried MAXCC / LASTCC / STEP.RC but none of that worked.

And how are you planning to deploy proc in production ? Either one needs to be changed and the correct place is JCL. You don’t need that IF conditions at all and update the max rc in scheduling to 4 for this job and you are done.
