CICS PA has a powerful command language to request reports. This language allows you to tailor your report requests to address the many aspects of measuring CICS performance. The JCL samples demonstrate reporting for some of the more common CICS facilities.

In addition, the CICS PA dialog provides a comprehensive set of sample report forms for formatting your reports and extracts. See Table 1 for the list of sample report forms provided by CICS PA.
