Setting defaults for all transaction ID objects

About this task

Before you start defining transaction ID objects, you may want to set the defaults for all transaction ID objects. These defaults are used to create the $Default definition that is automatically placed in the transaction IDs folder each time you define a new CICS® region, which is subsequently used to set the initial values for new program objects created in the CICS region's program subfolder. To set up the baseline set of defaults for all transaction ID objects:

Procedure

  1. Click the Default Properties folder in the tree pane.
  2. Double-click TransID in the view pane. This opens the Default TransID Properties window.
  3. Set the default options as desired. For more details on these settings, see TransID object details.
    Note: The second tab is not available since there is no available information on this tab that would make sense in a default context.
  4. Click the Save icon or select File > Save to save your changes.
  5. Select File > Close Window to exit this window.
