Inserting an APPC Element
DELTA IMS allows you to modify the APPC TP_PROFILE data set. If APPC is selected from the Edit Insert panel, DELTA IMS displays the DELTA List entry shown in the following figure. This entry adds information to the APPC TP_PROFILE data set.
To use an existing APPC element as a basis for creating a new APPC element, see Copying-and-Revising-DELTA-List-Elements.

******************************* BOTTOM OF DATA ********************************
The following fields are available on this panel:
ADD APPC | Type the name of the transaction program (TP) in the ADD APPC field. The TP name can be up to 12 characters long. |
|---|---|
APPCTYPE | Specify the type of APPC/MVS information you want to add, delete, or modify in the APPCTYPE field. TP_PROFILE is currently the only valid value for this field. |
API_TYPE | Specify whether the TP uses the implicit or explicit API to retrieve or receive the initial data for the transaction in the API_TYPE field. Type IMPLICIT or I if the TP uses DL/I communications facilities to retrieve the initial data for the transaction from the IO-PCB; type EXPLICIT or E if the TP uses SAA communications facilities to allocate resources and receive the initial transmission data for the transaction. See the appropriate IBM publication for additional information. |
ACTIVE | Type YES or NO in the ACTIVE field to specify whether the TP_PROFILE data set is active to APPC/MVS. |
LEVEL | Specify the TP_PROFILE audience level in the LEVEL field. Valid values for this field are SYSTEM, GROUPID, and USERID. Type SYSTEM if the TP can be used by all users on the system, GROUPID if only a specific group of users will use the TP, or USERID if only a particular user will use the TP. |
LVLID | If you specified GROUPID or USERID in the LEVEL field, use this field to specify the group ID or user ID. |
SCHED | Specify the exit used to check syntax of the scheduler section of the TP_PROFILE data in the SCHED field. DFSTPPE0 is the only valid value for this field; this exit is supplied by IBM with IMS. |
TRAN | Type the IMS transaction code to be associated with this TP name in the TRAN field. The transaction code can be up to eight characters long. If you specified IMPLICIT in the API_TYPE field, the transaction code must be defined to IMS. If you specified EXPLICIT in the API_TYPE field, the transaction code must not be defined to IMS. When you execute the DELTA List, DELTA IMS checks whether the transaction code you specify in this field has been defined to IMS. |
ICLASS | If you specified EXPLICIT in the API_TYPE field, specify a value of 1 through 256 for the IMS scheduling class. This field is ignored if you specified IMPLICIT in the API_TYPE field. |
MAXREGN | If you specified EXPLICIT in the API_TYPE field, specify the maximum number of dependent regions that this TP can use in the MAXREGN field. Valid values are 0 through 255. This field is ignored if you specified IMPLICIT in the API_TYPE field. |
SECURITY | Specify the type of RACF security that IMS should use for this TP. Valid values for this field are NONE, CHECK, and FULL ; CHECK is the default. Type NONE if IMS should call the DFSCTRN0 exit. Type CHECK if IMS should call RACF when IMS receives a transaction for this TP. Type FULL if IMS should clone the security environment when the TP is executed. See the appropriate IBM publication for additional information. |
COMMENT | Use the COMMENT field to type a user comment. |
