If you're at V5R1 you can use the new API to retrieve the program invocation 
stack.
If not you can use the system built-in _MATINVS function to retrieve it.

The easiest way (least complicated, not necessarily least work) would be to add 
a
options(*nopass) parameter, where you can pass the program name to the service
program routine.
