Out of interest, I did some research. The $JBIDBLD macro documents: JOBTYPE=Specifies a label, or a register that contains the address, of the job type flag byte (JOB, STC, TSU) used to construct the job ID. The job type flag byte must be defined. Valid job types, and the bit settings for each are: job typeflag bit settingbatch jobxxxxxx 00 STCxxxxxx 01 TSUxxxxxx 10
(no more, no less?) Other doc only speaks of: JES2 JOBID such as J12345, JOB12345, S12345, STC12345, T12345, TSU12345 Isn't the APPC initiator structure a complete clone of JES2? In other words, it has its own rules and JES2 has no relation whatsoever with APPC jobs or its jobids?

Annoying that it is not documented. I guess IBM's thinking is that we should just treat it as a magic cookie. It is guaranteed to be 8 EBCDIC characters that will identify a job or the like. End of story.

I was once told that there were five. One for APPC as you said, and another for MOUNT requests. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Charles Mills Sent: 15 June 2016 22:05 To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: EXT: Re: Where is format of Job ID documented? I was specifically wondering what could appear in the first position or first three positions. Is J(OB), S(TC) and T(SU) the complete set? I thought I seemed to remember A-something for APPC transactions? No? Anything else? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ******************************************************** For information, services and offers, please visit our web site: http://www.klm.com.
