APPC Transaction

If specified, applies to records created from the SMF 33, subtype 1 record. These records are created with a processing ID of R. They are differentiated from other records with a processing ID of R by a T in byte 266 of the account record and an A in byte 299. The charge is calculated as follows and placed in the RJE Charge/APPC Charge field:

RJE/APPC Charge = (Send Rate x Kilobytes Sent) +
                  (Receive Rate x Kilobytes Received) +
                  (Conversation Rate x Number of Conversations) +
                  (TCB Rate x TCB CPU Hours) +
                  (SRB Rate x SRB CPU Hours) +
                  (EXCP Rate x 1000 EXCPs) +
                  (Device Connect Rate x Seconds of Device Connect)

Note: If APPC/TP Name is specified, then the original APPC/TP Name must match that on the APPCRATE statement. Position 59 of the option causes the collection of SMF 33 information. Without this setting, no APPC transaction of conversation information is collected.

The following example shows typical usage of an APPCRATE statement:

position   1         2         3         6        7         8
 1.........0.........0.........0.........0........0.........0
 AAPPCRATE X            3500
 AAPPCRATE X TP1                           01000200   9750
                               22          63         75

On report A for CPUID = X, APPC task has a charge of $3.50 per 1000 Bytes Received; for TP name = TP1, APPC Transaction is charged $100 per hour for TCB time, $200 per hour for SRB time, and $9.75 per Second of Device Connect.
