Default Profile Feature (XCOMDFT)

If you have signed onto CICS through the CESN transaction, CA XCOM Data Transport saves the information you enter on the CA XCOM Data Transport screens. When you use the CA XCOM Data Transport transaction again, CA XCOM Data Transport defaults to the data that you entered last on the CA XCOM Data Transport screens. The major exceptions are the password fields, which are not saved to the XCOMDFT file.

The data is actually saved to the XCOMDFT file when you press F3 to leave the Primary Option Menu. Prior to that time, the data is retained in storage only. This is done to minimize I/O to the XCOMDFLT file.
