Case Translation
To enable case translation in CICS the following changes must be made:
- On the TYPETERM definitions UCTRAN must be set to TRANID. Specifying TYPETERM UCTRAN(TRANID) causes the transaction ID to be translated to uppercase; other input is translated according to what is specified for PROFILE UCTRAN.
- On the profile definition associated with SCF-based transactions (IDEA, DDOL) UCTRAN should be set to NO. This allows the terminal to run in mixed case mode. Transactions that require uppercase should be associated with a profile that has UCTRAN set to YES. CICS supplied transactions such as CEDA, CEMT, CECI, etc. are an example. IBM distributes the profile associated with those transactions with the parameter UCTRAN=NO. If uppercase translation is desired on those transactions, then the UCTRAN parameter should be changed to YES.
See the IBM documentation for more information regarding UCTRAN.
