The List Job (QUSLJOB) API generates a list of all or some jobs on the system. The generated list replaces any existing list in the user space.
The QUSLJOB API produces a list similar to the list produced by the Work with User Job (WRKUSRJOB) command.
The job user identity is the name of the user profile by which a job is known to other jobs. It is described in more detail in the Work Management topic.
The user space that is to receive the generated list, and the library in which it is located. The first 10 characters contain the user space name, and the second 10 characters contain the library name. You can use these special values for the library name:
| *CURLIB | The job's current library |
| *LIBL | The library list |
The format of the job list to be returned. If format JOBL0200 is specified, the fields that were selected by the caller will be returned for each job in the list. This format is slower than the JOBL0100 format. The performance will vary depending on the number of fields selected.
You must use one of the following format names:
| JOBL0100 | Basic job list. |
| JOBL0200 | Basic job list with keyed return fields. |
For more information, see Format of the Generated List.
The name of the job to be included in the list. The qualified job name has three parts:
| Job name | CHAR(10). A specific job name, a generic name, or
one of the following special values:
|
||||||
| User name | CHAR(10). A specific user profile name, a generic
name, or one of the following special values:
|
||||||
| Job number | CHAR(6). A specific job number or the following
special value:
|
The status of the jobs to be included in the list. The special values supported are:
| *ACTIVE | Active jobs. This includes group jobs, system request jobs, and disconnected jobs. |
| *JOBQ | Jobs currently on job queues. |
| *OUTQ | Jobs that have completed running but still have output on an output queue or the job's job log has not yet been written. |
| *ALL | All jobs, regardless of status. |
The structure in which to return error information. For the format of the structure, see Error Code Parameter. If this parameter is omitted, diagnostic and escape messages are issued to the application.
The type of job to be listed. Refer to Comparing Job Type and Subtype with the Work with Active Job Command in the Retrieve Job Information (QUSRJOBI) API for information about how the job type field and the job subtype field equate to the type field in the Work with Active Job (WRKACTJOB) command.
The possible values for this parameter are:
| * | This value lists all job types. |
| A | The job is an autostart job. |
| B | The job is a batch job. |
| I | The job is an interactive job. |
| M | The job is a subsystem monitor job. |
| R | The job is a spooled reader job. |
| S | The job is a system job. |
| W | The job is a spooled writer job. |
| X | The job is the start-control-program-function (SCPF) system job. |
The number of fields to return in the JOBL0200 format. This parameter is only used for the JOBL0200 format. If JOBL0100 is specified for the format name, the value must be zero.
The list of the fields to be returned in the JOBL0200 format. For a list of the valid fields, see Valid Keys. This parameter is used for the JOBL0200 format only. If JOBL0100 is specified for the format name, the value must be zero.
The value returned to the user in the header section when a partial list is returned. The possible values are:
| blank | This starts at the beginning of the list. This value is used if this parameter is omitted. |
| value | The entries after this value matching the job name specified are returned in the list. For more information on using this value to process a partial list, see Partial List Considerations. |
The job list consists of:
For details about the user area and generic header, see User Space Format for List APIs. For details about the remaining items, see the following sections. For detailed descriptions of the fields in the list returned, see Field Descriptions.
When you retrieve list entry information from a user space, you should use the entry size returned in the generic header. The size of each entry may be padded at the end. If you do not use the entry size, the result may not be valid. For examples of how to process lists, see API Examples.

Data. The data returned for the key field.
Format name specified. The format name as specified in the call to the API.
Internal job identifier. A value sent to other APIs to speed the process of locating the job on the system. Only APIs described in this topic use this identifier. The identifier is not valid following an initial program load (IPL). If you attempt to use it after an IPL, an exception occurs.
Job information status. Whether the information was available for the job. The possible values are:
| blank | The information was available. |
| A | The user was not authorized to the job. |
| L | The information was not available because the job was not accessible. |
Job name specified. The name of the job as specified in the call to the API.
Job name used. The name of the job as identified to the system. For an interactive job, the system assigns the job the name of the work station where the job started; for a batch job, you specify the name in the command when you submit the job.
Job number specified. The job number as specified in the call to the API.
Job number used. The system-assigned job number.
Job subtype. Additional information about the job type (if any exists). Refer to Comparing Job Type and Subtype with the Work with Active Job Command in the Retrieve Job Information (QUSRJOBI) API for information about how the job type field and the job subtype field equate to the type field in the Work with Active Job (WRKACTJOB) command. The possible values are:
| blank | The job has no special subtype. |
| D | The job is a batch immediate job. |
| E | The job started with a procedure start request. |

| U | The job is an alternate spool user. |
Job type. The type of job. Refer to Comparing Job Type and Subtype with the Work with Active Job Command in the Retrieve Job Information (QUSRJOBI) API for information about how the job type field and the job subtype field equate to the type field in the Work with Active Job (WRKACTJOB) command.

Number of fields returned. The number of fields returned to the application.
Number of fields to return specified. The number of fields to return as specified in the call to the API.
Reserved. An ignored field.
Status. The status of the job. The valid values are:
| *ACTIVE | The job has started, and it can use system
resources (processing unit, main storage, and so on). This does not guarantee
that the job is currently running, however. For example, an active job may be
in one of the following states where it is not in a position to use system
resources:
|
| *JOBQ | The job is currently on a job queue. The job
possibly was previously active and was placed back on the job queue because of
the Transfer Job (TFRJOB) or Transfer Batch Job (TFRBCHJOB) command, or the job
was never active because it was just submitted. |
| *OUTQ | The job has completed running and has spooled output that has not yet printed or the job's job log has not yet been written. |
Type of data. The type of data returned.
| C | The data is returned in character format. |
| B | The data is returned in binary format. |
User name specified. The user name as specified in the call to the API.
User name used. The user profile under which the job is run. The user name is the same as the user profile name and can come from several different sources depending on the type of job.
User space library specified. The name of the library containing the user space as specified in the call to the API.
User space specified. The name of the user space as specified in the call to the API.
