Enhance the JCL Parser to enable ControlM specific code

We have some JCL that contains some ControlM specific code which are decode by ControlM before submission. Some of those JCL can't be add in AD because the JCL parser does not understand it. In our example (TS009034119) the build client tells us that a procedure is missing but the parser is in error because some of the parameters of the procedure are code in ControlM language.


We would like to have the possibility to add those JCL either by adding the understanding of the ControlM langage in the JCL parser or by adding a way to overcome this issue (We was thinking about a decision with regex but decision only applies to COBOL)

    This requirement has been re-assessed. It is not likely that this will be implemented in the next 12-24 months and so it is being declined at this point. The requirement will be kept in the RFE system and might be reassessed in the future. You also have an opportunity to resubmit in twelve months time if you wish it to be reconsidered then.

    Thank you for taking the time to suggest an enhancement to our product. Many of our product enhancements result from feedback from our customers, so your input is always very important to us. Your request is currently in line with our product strategy and we are evaluating if it can be delivered within the next 18 months based on other priorities and other enhancement requests.
