Space announcement This documentation space provides the same content as before, but the organization of the content has changed. The content is now organized based on logical branches instead of legacy book titles. We hope that the new structure will help you quickly find the content that you need.

Product Functions


All screens and functions that are available to XPED and XPRT users are also available to XPSP users. All screens that are numbered with an initial 9 are available only to XPSP users.

This manual includes eight sections devoted to each of the high level menus accessed from the Primary Menu. For example, the Source Listing screen (2.L) and all the other screens that start with a 2 can be found in Debugging-Facilities-Screens.

The following table shows all the functions available in Code Debug CICS. It also briefly describes each function and lists the screens from which each function is available.
