The  OK confirmation  is  only  sent when  you  have selected  "Validate=
...,NoPW", which effectively disables password validation for this list.

It should  be either on every  command, or on  the JOB card (if  you have
one). Automatically  transferring passwords  from one command  to another
would be BAD security.
