Pgm: How to call BPCS Jobs from the Scheduler

[Bill Robins <brobins@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here is a part of a job we run multiple times during the day.  The part shown is
what is run once a day that edits and posts backflush transactions through
CimPath, then closes shop orders.  (Thanks to the members of this list that told
me about SYS664, that made this program possible.)

Bill

Note: Cim610cb is a real BPCS program, 620cb is not, we made it.
=================================================================
 Call       pgm(sys664) parm('SYS664')      /* Security  */

 Rtvdtaara  dtaara(ssasys (170 10)) rtnvar(&dftlib)
 CHKOBJ     OBJ(&DFTLIB/CISAPRCOS2) OBJTYPE(*DTAARA)
 MONMSG     MSGID(CPF9801) EXEC(DO)
 Crtdtaara  dtaara(&dftlib/cisaprcos2) type(*char) +
              len(128) value(N) aut(*all)
 ENDDO
 Chgdtaara  dtaara(cisaprcos2 (1 1)) value(Y)

 Call       cim610cb parm('SAPRCOS2' 'CIMPATH' +
              '*STD' '01' '*YES' '*LIBL')   /* Edit Trans*/
 Call       cim620cb parm('SAPRCOS2' 'CIMPATH' +
              '*STD' '01' '*YES' '*LIBL')   /* Post Trans*/

 Call       pgm(sys011c) parm(&jobq &jobqlbr &jobd +
              &jobdlbr &outq &outqlbr &wtrnm &wtrlbr +
              &quehld &copya &jobpty &outpty &jobhld)
 Chgdtaara  dtaara(*lda (20 1)) value('1')  /* Runtime   */
 Chgdtaara  dtaara(*lda (21 2)) value('01') /* From Fac. */
 Chgdtaara  dtaara(*lda (23 2)) value('01') /* To Fac.   */
 Chgdtaara  dtaara(*lda (25 1)) value('1')  /* Cls & Updt*/
 Chgdtaara  dtaara(*lda (412 10)) value('PRT01') /* Outq    */
 Chgdtaara  dtaara(*lda (422 10)) value('*LIBL') /* Outqlbr */
 Chgdtaara  dtaara(*lda (432 1))  value('Y')     /* Quehld  */
 Chgdtaara  dtaara(*lda (443 2))  value('01')    /* Copies  */

 Call       cst900c                         /* Close SO's*/
