hi,

What happens when i omit pend step while coding Insteam Procedure in my jcl ? Which type of error the jcl will return ? Explain in detail.

if U do not quote PEND it means the instream PROC itself doesn't end. So what ever u write in normal JCL for example EXEC, SYSIN steps and all be invalid as we should not use in INTREAM procs.

This doesn't answer ur qsrn completely.. but I have added my hint....

Hello,

In instream procedures the PEND statement is compulsory.If you ignore that parameter you can get following error.

IEFC005I PROC STATEMENT WITHOUT MATCHING PEND STATEMENT

I think this answer is correct.If any info..plz let me know

Bye
