If that's a common problem, do an RDJFCB for the STEPLIB and check each entry in the ARL to see if the dataset is authorized, reporting any that are not.

It might be useful if a program could not only report it was non-authorized but also the possible reasons why. Granted what @Ed says below, it would not always be possible of course, but usually the problem is simpler than that. Usually it turns out that "every library in the STEPLIB concatenation" means "EVERY library in the STEPLIB concatenation."

Hardly useful at all since -- for the purposes of APF authorization -- even when loaded from an APF authorized library, AC(1) applies only to the program listed on the EXEC PGM=program JCL statement. Suppose EXEC PGM=program is AC(0) and then XCTLs to you and you are AC(1) and residing in an APF authorized library. Now you're AC(1), you're the job step program, and yet you're not APF authorized.
