Terminate a batch

Hello,

I want to stop a batch processing using terminate, but I do not want that the jcl
will get an error code (on every rc ne 0 we get a consloe alert).
How can I use terminate oper1, oper2 to end the process but the jcl will not cause an alert?

With Regards,
Hezi

Hi Hezi,
Have you tried “TERMINATE 0” or simply “TERMINATE”?

Best regards,

Don’t understand the problem, TERMINATE allows you to specify a RC of 0 ?!?

Let me explain again:
jcl example
step 1. terminate 100
step 2. if rc = 100 then goto step 4/
step 3. what ever
step 4. send message.

Even that I got terminate 100 I do not want that my $mrc in the jcl will alert that as been an error.

Why do you check for a RC NE 0 then in the first place when you don’t
want it to trigger a message ?

Are there “valid” return codes you want to still cause a message to be sent ?

At any rate, you may want to check into using a   backend program

another approach: whatever you are calling for “send message” can probably be invoked from Natural with the CALL statement. So you don’t even need the return code.

Got your point.
I will try them both.
