  ****************************************************************
  When processing the return path of an IIOP request that has
  executed under a transaction context coordinated using a
  cascaded UR, the Transaction Service interceptor in the
  control region calls ATRSUSI specifying ATR_APPL_COMPLETE to
  indicate to RRS that the application executing for this UR is
  complete.  If the return code from the call is not ATR_OK then
  the control region is terminated to preserve the transactional
  integrity of the work and prevent further issues that require
  a restart to resolve.
  On investigation it was determined that there was a scenario
  wherein the a return value of ATR_APPL_COMPLETE_INV_STATE
  would be generated and processing should be allowed to
  continue with an appropriate exception thrown.
  

Problem conclusion

• The component issuing the ATRSUSI was modified to handle the
  ATR_APPL_COMPLETE_INV_STATE return code.  Additional checks
  are now performed to determine if processing should be allowed
  to continue and if so, the control region is not terminated and
  an org.omg.CORBA.TRANSACTION_ROLLEDBACK Exception is thrown.
  
  The fix for this APAR is targeted for inclusion in fix packs
  8.5.5.19 and 9.0.5.7. For more information, see 'Recommended
