Hi,

I recently came across a command called COPIES in a file aid step. It is obvious that it basically prints the number of copies. However, I could not find anything about this command in the manual. Any help is welcome

COPIES is a JCL parameter, not a FileAid parameter. So you need to look in MVS JCL Reference. Here's a link:
