Another pathological dig at REXX David?
The OP says, "I will use this code into one member and called by JCL as
input"
Not at all, Wayne. I asked because the OP is using SFTP (not FTP) and
Kirk provided far and away the best solution in the form of a shell script
that runs in batch.
My example was how I generate a date/time suffix for our remote ftp backups
and delete aged ones.
Much as you hate REXX, it works and it's pervasive.
I don't hate REXX. It's useful for many purposes. I just find I prefer
the power and expressiveness of modern languages. Simple things like the
lack of lexical scoping and short circuit evaluation make programming in
REXX unpleasant for me.

Why does he need REXX? Is he running it from a TSO command line?

I think Venkat has a few issues to solve
1) File is on the mainframe
2) He needs to add an LLQ on the Windows system he is sending the
file to
3) Mainframe date/time is different form Windows date/time (example,
MF in New York but PC is in Singapore, so needs to have the NY Date/Time in
the file name)
4) He needs a process that will create a file with the MF Date/Time
in the file name on the Window
5) He needs to determine what the LLQ should look like e.g.
2017-11-11 or 20171111 or 2017307 and so forth. Same with time HHMMSS or
HH-MM-SS and so forth.
A Rexx or Clist would be able to create a file name with the mf date/time
stamp but only at the run time. Not necessarily when the file was actually
created on the mainframe. Second, the FTP needs to place the file on the
windows system with the mf date/time in the file name.
He needs for someone to code this for him as he is not sure how to do
this process.
I think this summarizes his question so far, if not, he can restated the
area where I did not understand his requirements
P.S. I think REXX is the better process for this. But maybe he needs a
Batch function he can support.

Sorry! my mailer let my previous post go while I was editing!
Let me try again......
With Co:Z SFTP, its trivial to use shell scripting in batch to do this.
For example:
//SFTPPUT EXEC PROC=SFTPPROC
//SFTPIN DD *
cert="MY-RING:RSA-CERT"
user=myuser
host=my.windows.host.com
lzopts="mode=text,linerule=crlf"
lfile=//DD:MYDD
suffix=$(date +%Y-%m-%d:%H:%M:%S)
rfile="C:\SFTP\testpla.np.$suffix"
# This calls a sample batch script which sends lfile to rfile
. $script_dir/sftp_put.sh
//MYDD DD DISP=SHR,DSN=....
//*

Or Rexx.
ABC! (Anything But CLIST.)
