Well, you can very easily get an RC=4 if there are no groups with more than seven records (or any arbitrary known value). Have a subsequent step which abends when you get RC=0 in the step. Or deal with the RC=4 as good RC=0 as bad in your JCL, or your Scheduler.
Here's an OVERLAY. Put this under an IFTHEN=(WHEN=(logicalexpression) for your required condition,
If you desperately, desperately want a fake abend, that should do it.
