hi,

Can we use loop concept in datastage server jobs?

In a word, no.
A server job is a loop in its own right (loop until no more data).
Any routine can include as many loops as you need, but routines that are executed for every row processed really should be executed as quickly as possible.

Perhaps you could post a particular requirement, which we could address.

Do you have a particular reason for asking this? More detail will get more better answers. You can build a 'loop' in a 7.5.x Sequence job, by the way.
