I use DTAQ in online programs that has to wait for a submitted batch
process to finish <<SNIP>>

The SBMJOB provides a MSGQ() parameter that can be used to effect a wait; i.e. the OS automatically informs via that Message Queue of the job termination\completion, so the submitter can use that existing feature to eliminate any unnecessary polling-wait. That can be done using [an effective] RCVMSG WAIT(max-wait-time) without either of the called\submitted request or its routing program having to be coded specifically to deposit any messages on a data queue to inform of the job completion. Of course a common procedure for dealing with concerns like perceived-as excessively long wait, for example for which some notifications might be desirable followed by more waiting or an inquiry; but that potential concern is the same when using a Data Queue.
