Assuming that Job C is dependent on something that happens in Job A or B...this is dangerous.
What happens when an error is encountered in program "A"? The timer will run out and program "C" will take off and I hope there was no dependency!
It would be safer to modify the suggested scenario so that:
Init try-counter
Init Job-status-dtaara
SBMJOB A
SBMJOB B
DLYJOB 900
If try-counter exceeds limit...endjob.
If job A not done or job B not done...increment a try-counter...go wait some more.
Init try-counter
SBMJOB C
SBMJOB D
SBMJOB E
DLYJOB 900
If try-counter exceeds limit...endjob.
If job C not done or job D not done of job E not done...increment a try-counter...go wait some more.
SBMJOB F
SBMJOB G
Endjob
The determination of whether or not each job is complete can be monitored by each job updating the job-status-DTAARA when it is complete.

Maybe:
SBMJOB A
SBMJOB B
DLYJOB 900
SBMJOB C
SBMJOB D
SBMJOB E
DLYJOB 900
SBMJOB F
SBMJOB G
If the parameter is the amount of time, just pass it in as the number of seconds to delay, and use that variable on the DLYJOB.

I have a simple CL job that submits about 8 jobs. 2 jobs should fire
off immediately, 3 jobs should fire off about 15 minutes later and the
other 3 about 15 minutes after that. is there a simple way to code the
CL job with this parameter or am I way off base?
