"Seven digit" JES numbers have existed since Z2 level in 2002, but as Mark just educated me, the first digit is always a zero! The seven digits do exist in the JCTJOBID field, where I found values of Jnnnnnnn, and thus in the MXG changes to extract that nnnnnnn value into variable JESNR, I referred to it as a seven-digit number, but didn't observe nor note that the first byte is always a zero, with 999,999 the actual maximum JES Number.
