All ISPF edit commands are available for use. For example, to insert additional JCL statements, use the I (Insert) line command. To change the JCL, type over the data. To delete a line, use the D (Delete) line command. You can use the CREATE and REPLACE primary commands to save the generated JCL into a partitioned (PDS) or sequential data set. This enables you to submit the JCL without using the online conversation screens.

As you view or edit the JCL, you can:

  • Use the SUBMIT command to submit the print job for execution. Once the job is submitted, File redisplays the edit screen.
  • Use the END command (PF3) to return to the Print Data File screen.
