Color Associations: The light-green boxes are unique to SIMOTIME Technologies using an IBM Mainframe System or Micro Focus Enterprise Developer.
The light-red boxes are unique to the SIMOTIME Technologies using a Linux, UNIX or Windows System and COBOL Technologies such as Micro Focus.
The light-yellow boxes are SIMOTIME Technologies, Third-party Technologies, decision points or program transitions in the processing logic or program generations.
The light-blue boxes identify the input/output data structures such as Documents, Spreadsheets, Data Files, VSAM Data Sets, Partitioned Data Set Members (PDSM's) or Relational Tables.
The light-gray boxes identify a system function or an informational item.
Execute the Batch Job
This Job has been created to run on a Windows System with Micro Focus Enterprise Server (ES). This Job (or JCL Member) may be submitted for execution to a Micro Focus Enterprise Server Instance (SI) that has been configured with the Mainframe Sub-System Option and has the JES function enabled.
The job may be submitted from within Micro Focus ES Administration (a Browser-based Interface) or from a Windows Command Line using the CASSUB Utility program provided by Micro Focus. The following shows the format for the Micro Focus CASSUB command.
C:\SIMOSAM1\DEVL\JCL> cassub -jmembername -rserverinstancename
The following shows the format for the CASSUB command that we used in a SimoTime System environment.
C:\SIMOSAM1\DEVL\JCL> cassub -j..\STSTUBJ1.JCL -rSIMOBATA
Technical Details
This section provides additional technical details about the modules that are included in the batch job example.
The JCL Member
The following is a JCL member(STSTUBJ1.jcl) used to run the COBOL program.

Company Overview
SimoTime Technologies was founded in 1987 and is a privately owned company. We specialize in the creation and deployment of business applications using new or existing technologies and services. We have a team of individuals that understand the broad range of technologies being used in today's environments. Our customers include small businesses using Internet technologies to corporations using very large mainframe systems.
Quite often, to reach larger markets or provide a higher level of service to existing customers it requires the newer Internet technologies to work in a complementary manner with existing corporate mainframe systems. We specialize in preparing applications and the associated data that are currently residing on a single platform to be distributed across a variety of platforms.
Preparing the application programs will require the transfer of source members that will be compiled and deployed on the target platform. The data will need to be transferred between the systems and may need to be converted and validated at various stages within the process. SimoTime has the technology, services and experience to assist in the application and data management tasks involved with doing business in a multi-system environment.
Whether you want to use the Internet to expand into new market segments or as a delivery vehicle for existing business functions simply give us a call or check the web site at http://www.simotime.com
