Generic Transactions

A transaction identifier can have the same common suffix as the name of the transaction procedure it subsequently invokes-for example, the transaction identifier DBUPDT and the procedure APPCUPDT have the suffix UPDT in common. If there are many transactions starting with a fixed prefix such as DB that invoke procedures with a fixed prefix such as APPC but with the same variable suffix, a single generic transaction definition can be used to service them.

Generic transactions are defined by specifying masks for the transaction IDs, TPNs, and procedures in the TCT entry.
