The SMPPTS dataset is the *OUTPUT* of the receive process, not the input.
SMPPTFIN is the input to the process.
SMPPTFIN is *REQUIRED* to be FB/80. This can be a PS file (typically *.SMPMCS)
or a PDS member *.SMPMCS(member).
It *CANNOT* be a PDS read as a sequential (which is what was coded below).
Also, as coded, you are trying to use the *SAME* dataset as both input and
output simultaneously.
AFAIK, SMP/E will not do this .
To change the above(although I really think you should RTFM before proceeding),
try
//SMPPTFIN DD DSN=xxxxx.xxxxx.R14.SMPPTS(uk*****),
// DISP=SHR (concatenate as required)

The SMPPTS is a PDS file but still i get the same error message.
