A job can begin with a job header followed by data, and end with a job trailer. For NJE jobs, the data between the header and trailer can be either SYSIN or SYSOUT data.
An NJE SYSIN job contains JCL for a job and one or more SYSIN data sets. It might or might not contain data set headers. If a data set does not contain 80-byte fixed records, the data set is preceded by a data set header that contains only a record characteristics change section.
An NJE SYSOUT job contains one or more SYSOUT data sets. One or more data set headers precede each SYSOUT data set.
A data set header contains a prefix section, a general section, and any of the other listed sections.
Internal custom section (Barr specific)
User custom section/LPD (Barr specific)
