This command processes online data according to the DFLT JDE in
the online JDL file, using the GBAR form.

DJDE parameters in the job input data stream. These DJDE

Hierarchy of replacement in an errored job descriptor library (JDL)
The following discussion illustrates the effect of errors when the PDL
processor is evaluating a JDL source file. If an error occurs during
compilation, it is mandatory to fix the error and recompile.
Example:
The VOLUME command CODE parameter in the catalog level below
contains a syntax error (VOLUME CODE=EBDIC). If you use the
incorrect JDL, the code default, ASCII, specified in the system
command level is applied to the job level (job descriptor entry JOB1).
SAM2:SYSTEM;
VOLUME CODE=ASCII;
AA:CATALOG;
VOLUME CODE=EBDIC;
OUTPUT COPIES=100;
JOB1:JOB INCLUDE=(AA);
OUTPUT COPIES=50;
