Specifying Automatic Starts and Timeout Intervals for Transactions

You can determine whether a transaction should be started automatically if a request message is already in transaction mode by coding the AUTOTRAN ={Y|N} parameter. The default is N.

You can specify a timeout interval between the time at which a transaction for a service begins and the time at which it is rolled back if not completed. To specify a timeout interval that will be used automatically, set the TRANTIME parameter as follows:

TRANTIME=number

The default is 30 seconds. A value of 0, the maximum timeout value for the computer, means a transaction will never time out.
