Using Quick Build

The Quick Build feature allows you to quickly generate a utility job for specified objects. The intent of Quick Build is to allow you to easily create a simple job, such as for a one-time REPAIR to reset a table space's CHECK PENDING status.

Quick Build essentially uses the same screens as when building object, utility, and job profiles. The difference is that the job is not saved as a profile, and as such cannot be retrieved or edited as a profile once you finish the Quick Build process. However, you can always save and edit the generated JCL if desired.

You can use Quick Build to create a job without having to create an object or utility profile. In addition, you can initiate a Quick Build from the Objects Profile Display or the Utilities Profile Display using line commands.

Exception processing cannot be specified when using Quick Build.
