Which of the following conditional expression cannot be used with an IF-THEN-ELSE-ENDIF Construction

  1. STEP.RC NE 8

  2. ABEND=FALSE

  3. STEP.CC=U4038

  4. STEP.RUN EQ TRUE
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

In JCL IF-THEN-ELSE-ENDIF constructs, checking STEP.CC with a specific user abend code like U4038 is not valid syntax. The valid expressions include checking return codes (STEP.RC), abend status (ABEND), and run status (STEP.RUN), but CC must be checked differently or through RC codes.
