Parameter Prompting Facility – Type 1

The Parameter Prompting facility – Type 1 is an ISPF table-based facility that provides automatic prompting for AutoEdit parameter values and setting of prerequisite conditions. It is the recommended method for operations personnel to automate the updating of AutoEdit parameter members.

The Control-M JCL and AutoEdit facility eliminates the need for frequent manual changes to job parameters. However, there are usually a few job parameter changes that cannot be automated, for example, tape serial numbers, which are unknown prior to tape arrival. These types of parameters require manual modification by the user, generally operations personnel.
