Hi Tom, I did this in JES2 Exit 6, with SAF calls for access checking.
The difficult piece for STEP level TIME cards was to determine the JOBCLASS default TIME value that gets automatically placed onto all EXEC card images. Some determined access to JES2 control blocks via $DSERV and $DOGCAT calls allowed me to get the default TIME values for comparison. If your TIME value exceeded that of the JOBCLASS specification, then a call is made to a FACILITY class resource to confirm you are allowed to code a STEP level TIME card. Access failure triggers a JCL ERROR. I also validate JOBCLASS and REGION usage in this exit.
