  • 1.  CICS transaction property lookup

    Posted Tue January 23, 2024 07:26 AM

    Newlist type CICS_transaction .

    I can list all the transactions with a DB2Entry, but I need to lookup and report on the authype field in the  CICS_DB2ENTRY newlist type.

     
    Is this possible, and if so how to define the lookup?

    Assistance greatly appreciated.

    To get a lookup working out of the box from CICS_TRANSACTION to CICS_DB2ENTRY I recommend making an RFE, we could support this fairly quickly.

    You could even ask us to show one or more lookup values in the CICS tranasacion display; which column(s) are you most interested in to see on the transaction display?

    A 2 pass query as fallback is of course possible now.

    Hi Hans, 
    Sorry its been a while since you responded. 

    In the transaction display, the fields that most interest me at the moment are Transaction, Program, DB2Entry, Plan, AUTHTYPE, AUTHID. 

    This pretty much like a combination of all the CICS_* newlist types in one single report.

    Thanks

    Regards
