I worked at one shop where IDMS created most JCL on the fly.  

My current shop has most of the JCL within a proc.   Some people
develop using in-line procs, but I don't recommend that, because we
have the following to allow me to use the proc that will get migrated
- without change:

// JCLLIB ORDER=(UMS.D44201.PROC,UMS.STG1TEST.PROC)
