SELECT and IGNORE statements identify jobs or conditions that must or must not be deleted.

One or more parameters can be specified in any SELECT or IGNORE statement (in any order). For a description of parameters GROUP, JOBNAME, MEMBER, STATUS, FROM, and TO, see the CTMCAJF utility in the INCONTROL for z/OS Utilities Guide.

A job specified for deletion using a SELECT statement is deleted unconditionally even if the job is currently executing.

Conditions that are not date‑related can be defined with a date reference of STAT, which eliminates the need for including SELECT or IGNORE statements in procedure CTMTDAY.
