Application details
The "Application details" page shows the details for a particular application. You access the "Application details" page by clicking an application name on any page on which applications appear, such as the "Application summary" page.
An application is a user-defined grouping of assets. When you assign CICS® transactions, IMS transactions, or files to an application, their assets also become part of the application.
Use the "Application details" page to:
- See the attributes of a specific application.
- Perform actions on the asset.
- See other assets that are related to the current asset.
- See measurements for the assets of an application.
