So, you would need to have a written program (REXX, other language), executed as a job-step that processed a PARM= string value and passed it to an OUTPUT DD allocation in your job (either temp or perm DSN). That output DD allocation would then be used as a concatenated "input" DD for your FTP command set, as needed, to resolve the "variable" information.
