Table 3-3 Parameters Specified in the SERVICES Section

Parameter	Meaning
AUTOTRAN	Determines whether a transaction must be started automatically if a message received by this service is not already in transaction mode. The default is N. Use of the parameter must be coordinated with the programmers that code the services for your application.
TRANTIME	Specifies a timeout value, in seconds, for transactions automatically started in this service. The default is 30 seconds. Required only if AUTOTRAN=Y and another timeout value is required.
