You now know why there is not an *OUTFILE option - there is no way to put the data into single records. Subcategories of information are of variable size and counts, e.g., I'm sure. The same thing applies to DSPSBSD and DSPSYSVAL

You can still use this output, but you will need to do some fancy programming - CPYSPLF to a database file (or use the OVRDBF QPRINT yourfile command) to get the information into a file you can read in RPG. Then you would need to read it, keeping track of identifying markers (reports headings, column headings, etc.) for each kind of information you want, manipulate state indicators (variables), etc. You can get it, but it's not kindergarten work. There are numerous examples in the QUSRTOOL library - look for the use of CPYSPLF and RCVF.

Otherwise, you could find out what APIs exist for the Advanced Job Scheduler and call those things. You would have more control of what it is you are retrieving, and it's generally easier to manage data output from there. You could use multiple files, if necessary, to handle the data. Some of the work is similar to handling the spooled output, but, as I said, you are in control - you know what you are getting, hence, what to do with it. You don't need constantly to check "what part of the report am I in now".

Good luck
