Inclusions are recommended when defining transaction names.

Generic notation of transaction names is allowed using * as a wildcard.

For example: TRAN* INCLUDED

In this example, all transaction names that do not begin with TRAN* are implicitly excluded from the IMS INFO Scope.

All defined transaction names must be either inclusions or exclusions.

You are not allowed to mix these definitions.
