System shut down program?

I know all about the system startup program but I am trying to work out how
to shut the system down automatically by reversing the commands in the
startup program and then doing a PWRDWNSYS.

For example, using the utilities available on the 400 I can schedule the
system to power off at 10pm and run the cleanup routines at *SCDPWROFF.  I
can also use the job scheduler to run my system shut down program at a
specific time each day but there is not an option to run at *SCDPWROFF.

Does anyone know of a way of doing this apart from buying some software, I
am quite willing to write my own though.
