Hi Phil,
Your coding looks pretty good!
You could put all conditions in one layer, but nested-IF logic can have better performance, since if the top layer is false, other layers won't be checked.
Also if there is only one statement, no need to use DO-ENDDO, like:
IF DAYS_FROM('OCT 18,2019') GE 0 - AND DAYS_TO('DEC 01,2019') GE 0 THEN - DATASET 'V914177.JCL'Hope this helps,
Lucy

Is there an easier way to code the following ... this nested IF works ...
Example, Of the 10 calling the template, I want 3 to pull the JCL from a different JCLLIB for a specific time period.
