The IOACICSJ job assembles and links the IOACICS module. This module performs all the CICS‑related functions under the CICS interface. Due to CICS version dependencies, which are changes in CICS basic commands, the IOACICS module must be assembled using the DFHEITAL procedure or equivalent. This procedure executes the CICS pre‑processor and assembles and linkedits the module. The IOACICS module resides in the IOA CICSSAMP library. Customization instructions are provided in the module.

While in ICE, modify any necessary JCL statements, as instructed in the jobs, and submit the job. Verify that the preprocess, assembly and link‑edit steps complete successfully.

Note: Repeat this step whenever the CICS version is changed.
