    Hello,
    we are currently installing CICS TS 5.6,
    and also here the generated Workflow-Jobs have all the same name from my previously defined Jobcard.
    But there are already existing better names in the workflow, a column like "JCL Data Set Member Name", example: IZUD01UZ

    Maybe there is a variable already existing but is not mentioned / published?
