With a change management system like Aldon CMS or Turnover, you can specify
the creation parameters for the service programs (and other objects) there.


The QUSRTOOL library has a make utility (TMK) which can be used to create
your programs and service programs.  It's not the easiest thing to use.

Alternately, the old TAATOOL library had a command SBMPDMPARM which is used
as a substitute for PDM options 14 & 15.   It reads the source member for
"creation parameters" stored as comments.   It would probably need to be
modified to create service programs.
