Have you considered splitting it into two jobs. The first job would have everything up to the "particular" step followed by a step with COND=EVEN to submit the second job. The second job would not need any special JCL since any of its steps that abend would cause the remaining steps to flush.

My problem is not with creating a return code; that's very easy. (As I said, we have a trivial utility that does it just fine.) My problem is how to use either IF statements, or CONDs (IF statements preferred), to allow a job to continue if a particular step abends, but to flush remaining steps if any further step abends.
