Issue a line command ‘XDC‘ against the Job you want to copy in a dataset. You need to give the name of the dataset where you want to store the information. Suppose, you do not want to capture the entire spool output of the JCL but wish to only store the information of JESYSMSG or JESJCL or JESMSGLG, then you can just give ‘XDC’ in front of JESYSMSG or JESJCL or JESMSGLG respectively.
| Description | Command |
|---|---|
| Prints to a data set and closes the print file when the printing is done. Write this command on the left of JOBNAME | XDC |
| Prints the output that you are browsing. This command entered from within browse | PRINT |
| Description | Command |

| Keep the cursor on the row you are working with | SET CURSOR ON |
| Return cursor to thecommand line | SET CURSOR TOP |

Issue a line command ‘SJ‘ against the job you wish to run. You can edit the JCL here and submit it. Please note that editing of JCL here does not save the changes in the member where your JCL is present so you cannot physically SAVE the changes but only logical editing can be done.
| Description | Command |
|---|---|
| Run a JCL directly from SPOOL area | SJ |
