By SPECIFYING the DISP as PASS for the TEMP DATASET.

By specifying the DISP as PASS for the temp dataset.

S0C7 - Data exception error - you will get it whenever you are trying to move the low VALUES or SPACES into the numeric field, or COMPARE the numeric fields with low values, or try to do some arithmetic OPERATIONS on the low values. To avoid this you have to always INITIALIZE the numeric fields otherwise they will contain the low values.

COND is a condition parameter, CONSISTS of 2 subparameters, 1ST - return code from the PREVIOUS step, 2ND - condition. If COND is true, the step on which COND is coded will be BYPASSED. It is compared with system return code of previous step //STEP1 EXEC PGM=ABCD //STEP2 EXEC PGM=XYZ, cond=(4,lt) STEP 2 will be executed when system return code of step1 is LESS than 4.

Pass all the JCL codes to a COBOL VARIABLE (should be declared USING OCCURS clause) and then write the line one by one to the spool using CICS COMMANDS LIKE SPOOLClose, SPOOLOpen and SPOOLWrite. For more help refer CECI of CICS or CICS manual.

A CONTROL CARD can be a member of a PDS or a sequential dataset and is USED for storing the date FIELDS, definitions of VSAM files etc., We use CONTROL CARD because we cannot use an in-stream procedure in a procedure. Generally you will be CALLING a PROC from your JCL and you cannot code instream procedure in the PROC and so you will point to the dataset, which is CALLED controlcard.

• S0C1 (Operation Exception Error) - May be due to Missing or misspelled DD name ,Read/Write to UNOPENED dataset ,Reading a dataset opened output mode Writing into a dataset opened input mode ,Called subprogram not found.
• S0C4 may be due to Missing Select statement (during COMPILE) ,Bad Subscript/index ,Protection Exception Missing parameters on called subprogram ,Read/Write to unopened file ,MOVE data from/to unopened file;
• S0C5 May be due to Bad Subscript/index ,Close an unopened dataset ,Bad EXIT from a perform ,Access to I/O area (FD) before read;
• S0C7 may be due to Numeric operation on non-numeric data ,Un-initialized working storage ,Coding past the maximum allowed subscript
• S0CB might be due to 1.Division by Zero.
