Invoking cataloged procedures
To invoke a cataloged procedure, specify its name in the PROC parameter
of an EXEC statement. You do not need to code the keyword PROC. For
example, to use the cataloged procedure CEEWLG, include the following
statement in an appropriate position among your other job control
statements in the input stream:
//stepname EXEC PROC=CEEWLG
or
//stepname EXEC CEEWLGEither of these EXEC statements can be used to call the IBM-supplied cataloged procedure CEEWLG to process the job step specified in stepname.
A job that calls for a cataloged procedure to run can also contain
DD statements that are applicable to the cataloged procedure, such
as:
- Other cataloged procedures to be run
- Other (single or multiple) executions of the same cataloged procedure
- Executable programs to be run
