Transaction Group report

The Transaction Group report accepts data from one or more CICS® systems, correlating the data by transaction group id. The default is to print only the CMF performance class records that are contained in a transaction group that includes multiple performance records.

The Transaction Group report can be used to understand the correlation of the performance class records for the transactions that CICS runs as part of the same incoming work request (for example, the CWXN and CWBA transactions for CICS Web support requests).

To request the report, enter line action S against the Transaction Group Performance Report on the Report Set panel. If reports of this type have been previously specified, the list of Transaction Group Reports is displayed. Otherwise, the Transaction Group Report panel is displayed for you to define your first report of this type.

This panel displays the list of Transaction Group Reports in this Report Set. You can select (edit), delete, or include/exclude any report, insert new ones, or rearrange them (move/copy).

The options and line actions are the same as those for the Performance List Reports panel, except there is no Report Form. See Performance List report.

Use this panel to specify report options and record selection criteria for the Transaction Group report. The report format is fixed. The mandatory options are the Report Output DDname and the Transaction Group Processing Option. You can let the other options default.

The report options are the same as those for the Performance List Report (see Performance List report), except there is no Report Form and there is an additional processing option:
Processing Options
Select option 1 - Groups of more than one record to report only the transaction performance records whose Transaction Group ID spans multiple CMF records. This is the default. This selection generates the PRINTMULTIPLE operand.

Select option 2 - Groups of a single record to report only the transaction performance records consisting of a Transaction Group ID that includes only a single CMF record. This selection generates the PRINTSINGLE,NOPRINTMULTIPLE operand.

Select option 3 - All Groups to report all the transaction performance records. This generates the PRINTSINGLE,PRINTMULTIPLE operand.

CICS PA provides a default Report Output DDname in the format TRGPnnnn where nnnn is 0001-9999.
