I was under the impression that using the JOB parm required all
three parms of JobName, Userid, JobNumber.
All three qualified elements of the JOB parameter are not required;
up to two are optional. The specification can be any of JOB(JobName)
[the equivalent of JOB(*N/*N/JobName)], JOB(Userid/JobName) [the
equivalent of JOB(*N/Userid/JobName)], or JOB(JobNumber/Userid/JobName);
each "equivalent" represents more conspicuously, the omitted values.
These are a form of /generic/ specification for the qualified job name.
Once I used Job(JobName) I was able to select the last report using
SPLNBR(*LAST).
This is one of the above-noted /generic/ JOB specifications. If
there were more than one job name meeting the criteria [which could
possibly be narrowed with a JOBSYSNAME parameter specification], then
the command would fail with CPF3343 "Duplicate job names found." to
inform you that the "job name that you specified was not unique."
Unlike ENDJOB [and some other JOB commands], the CPYSPLF command does
not prompt the "Select Job" panel from which to choose from duplicate
named jobs.

If I use the CPYSPLF command below it is unable to locate file
QPQUPRFIL as shown in the CPYSPLF below?
I know it will work if I add the Job name, User, and specify SPLNBR,
but how do I determine the SPLNBR to pass to the CPYSPLF command?
CPYSPLF FILE(QPQUPRFIL) TOFILE(SYST012/PSDAILYRPT) SPLNBR(*LAST) TOMBR(AACL28DS)

QPQUPRFIL SYST012 QPRINT AADSTPASS RDY 2 1 2 AADSTPASS SYST012 983882
Reformatted as more compact with fewer irrrelevant details:
.> Total File
.> File User Pages Number Job User Number
.> QPQUPRFIL SYST012 2 2 AADSTPASS SYST012 983882
For that specific spool file, a more complete request would be:
CPYSPLF FILE(QPQUPRFIL) TOFILE(SYST012/PSDAILYRPT) TOMBR(AACL28DS)
/* -> */ JOB(983882/SYST012/AADSTPASS) SPLNBR(2) /* <- */
