IEFC607I   JOB HAS NO STEPS

Explanation

The system did not find either:

  • An EXEC statement in the JCL statements following a JOB statement
  • A PEND statement in a job that contains a PROC statement prior to any EXEC or SYSCHK DD statement

System action

The system ends the job, issues messages about the job, and scans the remaining JCL statements for syntax errors. The system either adds a dummy EXEC statement with EXECFAIL in its name field, or, if a PEND statement is missing, considers the remainder of the job part of the input stream procedure.

System programmer response

Obtain the SYSOUT output for the job. Look at the messages in the job log. If the JOB statement did not specify MSGLEVEL=(1,1), specify it and run the job again.

If the problem persists, search problem reporting databases for a fix for the problem. If no fix exists, contact the IBM® Support Center.

Programmer response

Insert an EXEC or PEND statement or correct the EXEC or PEND statement containing errors. Submit the job again.
