When Using The Job-to-Job Facility
When using the job-to-job facility, you must consider the following:
1. Control is passed to the specified program when your program ends,
either normally or abnormally.
2. The next program is always loaded into the same partition as the current
program.
3. You can code more than one CALL to thejob-to-job facility. This
allows the logic of your program to determine which program will be
loaded and executed next after, for example, a STOP RUN statement in
the current program is executed.
4.
In programs with more than one CALL to the job-to-job facility, the last
CALL processed determines which succeeding program will be loaded.
5. Be sure to specify the NOPROMPT option described in Chapter 7 when
compiling the next job to be run. This ensures that this job can be
loaded and executed with little or no operator intervention.
