Hi Amlan the magic word is 'conditional compile' to activate specific COBOL statements in a single COBOL Source. (e.g DFHCOMMAREA in CICS)
COBOL-Source: $IF COMPILEMODUS = "CICS" 01 DFHCOMMAREA. ... $END $IF COMPILEMODUS = "BATCH" 01 io-area. ... $END You need two load modules, one for batch and one for CICS. Unfortunately IBM COBOL compiler does not support the conditional compile, but only Microfocus COBOL compiler. Therefore you need a preceding step for each compile-job to activate, deactivate the conditional compile statements.
