Thanks. Can I do it with a UNIX command without programming? (Not that I don't love to program ...)

APPC/MVS and z/OS UNIX transactions create output, but are never assigned complete JES job structures. For APPC/MVS the output is aggregated under ASCHINT address spaces and for z/OS UNIX under BPXAS. You can experiment and create "transaction jobs" yourself (in batch, under TSO, wherever) by creating your own subtask JSAB using the provided services. Here is me fooling around (under JES2) with various job names and a jobid called CRAZYBOY.
