read the application docs icon_biggrin.gif

the link between different components/stages of a CICS transaction is ...
only internal to the program flow and coding

EXEC CICS SEND MAP(mapname) MAPSET(mapset)
is not externalized anywhere

same for XCTL and LINK...

getting worse for PSUDO converational RETURN TANSID(...)


maybe running days and days of auxiliary trace in the hope to catch all the leaves
and writing a smart reduction program You might be able to get an application
flow of things

Technically, there's one program associated with a CICS transaction, and it's easy to find via CEDC. However, that one program may invoke maps, link or xctl to other programs, call subroutines. And none of this information is associated in any way, shape, style, or form with the transaction -- only the one program is. To find all this other stuff you have to either trace through the code via CEDF or another tool, or you have to manually read the program source to find out what it is doing, or you have to review the system documentation (hoping that it is complete and accurate) to find out these things.
