Thanks Pandora Box.

What is the use of - I read that it can be used to submit job from a JCL step but is the only use or internal reader actually have read capabilities to read something internally?

The most common use is with IEBGENER to copy a data set of JCL to the internal reader, thus submitting the copied JCL as a job into the system.
