Once compile & link edied the CICS program in TSO region, make entry in PCT and PPT table in CICS region, and get the transaction id.

Run the the new Transid by,

1) Type the new transid in CICS region
2) Using START command
3) By ATI (use of TDQ)
4) By Function key (Assigning PF key)
5) By making entry SIT, during IPL

No, by making program an entry in PLTPI to execute during initialization.

Also, by applying TRANSID in the Terminal Control Table entry.


These are all ways of executing the initial program. Programs are also executed by EXEC CICS LINK/XCTL or by (Cobol) CALL .


Garry.
