Hi,

Can we write a JCL to assemble all the required services to send an SMS to a specific user located across the globe? If there is a possibility could anyone of you please help me in right direction?

Thank you!

There may be a way (I'm not aware of one myself) but it will most likely require purchase of software, which could -- depending upon your site -- run hundreds of thousands of US dollars.

If your system has SMTP enabled then you can send an email to as an sms message. For a list of common sms addresses see http://20somethingfinance.com/how-to-se ... -for-free/

XMITIP has the ability to generate a properly formatted SMTP email, including a sms message - see www.lbdsoftware.com
