CICS Performance Record TRANsaction Variable Class

This section describes variable information for class TRANsaction on system CICS.

Syntax:

[CICS] [record-type] TRANSACTION variable-name

ID Options

The record type of a TRANsaction variable determines which ID options can be used with the variable, as follows:

Use PERFormance TRANsaction variables with all ID options except DSAID, and LSRID.
Use any CICS SUMmary TRANsaction variables with the following ID options: CICSREL, JOBNAME, SYSID, and TRANID.

The following table provides variable information for the CICS system with a variable class of transaction:
