I forgot to mention that you have to have it stopped in debug, to add other program/service-programs. At least that is how I do it, when debugging a specific job...
Sort of the same way on the old Green Screen Debugger.
To add break-points on the newly added program, I have to double-click on the source, and add the break-point. And sadly, I have to step into the code once for it to work. I am probably missing some little thing. But, that is how I get it to work.

I'm with you thru #3, I do that regularly. I tried #4, but it just didn't work.

Hi,
So, set up a debug job for your specific job. And then add a break-point for that module.
Inside debug, set up the debug for job:
1.) >Run>debug configuration
2.) on the "IBM i: debug job" add your job, which I assume is either currently running, as "Never-ending" job, or that you have on hold. Or optionally set up your 5250 session to debug.
Put in the job/user/number in the dialog
3.) And you should be good to go! I do that all the time...
4.) Don't forget to add programs to debug.
* While in Debug open the Program/Module view
* add the Program to also to debug. Which could be Program and/or service program. Select the correct radio button, when adding the program/service program.
Sort of hard to explain in an email, but that give you the basic idea....
Might want to explore these possible labs, if you are newbie:
