Complete list of CICS-supplied transactions

This information lists all the transactions that are supplied with CICS on Open Systems, except for those that are part of CICS-supplied sample programs. The transactions that have operator interfaces, and that therefore are listed in this book, are marked with an asterisk (*).

Transactions that are followed by a (p) are private transactions. They do not have a program name in the Transaction Definitions (TD), so you cannot change their names or copy them.

Changing any attributes of a private transaction might have unpredictable results, and is not supported.
