I am not very sure. But what i can see is that , the format of data you have passed is wronng. That's why the abend. for instance if you need to change a after date property of a job u need to code like ADATE=MMDD,ATIME=XXXX. But instead of that if you code After=MMDD it will say invalid data. This is your mistake I believe.
Use CA7 primer. you can get it in google. Find the proper code to pass the input. Please let me know if I am wrong. Also let me know if you find the solution.

Thanks !

Hi jagasworld,

Thanks for your information. I have found that it is the space problem in the command.
It should not include the space after the comma.

MONTHLY=Y, RDAYS=-00, MONTHS=(X,,,,,,,,,,)

Thanks

Oh Gr8. Thanks for sharing !
