this has nothing to do with JCL.

you have not provided the error, number, description.

if you are indeed trying to CALL a 24bit module from a 32bit module you will have trouble.

easiest way is to change the CALLed module to 32bit convention.
otherwise, you can use Language Environment interfaces to accomplish this silliness.
Google for Language Environment.

As there are very few DOS shops left, everything should be accomplished with 32bit archetecture
though modifying HLASM to 32 will require some expertise.

JCL, SQL and code in programs have an irritating habit of doing what you say,
not what you meant.
