Question: What is the purpose and meaning of the TIME keyword and what JCL statement is it associated with?
Answer: TIME specifies the maximum CPU time allocated for a particular job or job step. If TIME is in the JOB card, it relates to the entire job; if in the EXEC statement, it relates to the job step. |

if time parameter is coded on both job and step, then the time coded on the EXEC statement over-rides the one on the job.[refererred on pg 88 of Mvs Jcl Primer]
U might be interested to know this too.
The COND parameter if coded on both job and step, then the parameter coded on JOB overrides the one coded on the step |
