Error recovery procedure function management header

CICS® sends and receives the error recovery procedure function management header to transmit error information from one process to another.

The header is sent after an exception response (X'0846') and carries sense codes, which are used to inform the half-session partner of the nature of the error. It is followed by an error message. CICS writes the received IMS error message to the transient data destination CSMT; IMS writes the received CICS error message to the master terminal or the input source node.
