Discussion

The PROC statement ends the data division section of a program and begins the procedure division. You must use one PROC statement per routine.

The END statement ends the procedure division. If the procedure division is part of a main routine, subroutine, function, or method definition, you can alternatively end it with ENDMAIN, ENDSUBROUTINE, ENDFUNCTION, or ENDMETHOD, respectively.

The PROC and END statements are recognized with or without a beginning period.
