Hi Beate, There's a small REXX program on www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=827693 which gives the return code of previous steps.

SMF exit can NOT be used. Three ideas have been discussed so far: 1. Access the SMF information for this job - Question: is there a pointer / token to find the information within the initiator address space (contents of SMF record 30 (step / job termination)). 2. Use variable JCL to get this information - we haven't found yet whether there is any variable or so to do this. 3. Intercept the DETACH of the job steps - doesn't sound like a good idea, we don't want to use hooks... Any answers to the above or new ideas are highly appreciated.
