Hi,

Could any one please let me know

How we can identify whether a Transaction in CICS is manually driven or It is Automatically Initiated(ATI) through a TDQ or it's a Message triggered Transaction.

Thanks in Advance!!

Look at the TD queue definition; I don't think just looking at the transaction definition will tell you how it is started.

Thanks for the Information.Just wanted to know are message triggered transactions(MQ) are associated with TDQ's?

I don't deal with MQ so I have no idea.

INQUIRE TRANSACTION returns STARTCODE which indicates how a transaction was started. Transactions started by MQ triggering would fall into the 'SD' category.

Hope this helps,
Garry.
