Communications/Transactions Guide and Reference
To set up a CICS transaction, first open the settings for the Proc Dialog
part, then fill in the following fields on the Destination
Information page of the notebook:
- Transaction ID
- The transaction ID of the CICS transaction you want to run.
- Program Name
- The name of the program you want CICS to run.
- Server Name
- The name of the server where the transaction you want to run is
located.
You can also specify values in the optional security fields of the settings
notebook. Fill in the following fields on the Destination

- User ID
- The user ID required to access the remote system.

Fill in the following fields on the Data Attributes page:
- Code page
- The character code page used by the remote system. The default code
page is the current code page for the system.
- Buffer length
- The size of the memory buffer VisualAge allocates for the data sent to and

least as large as the total size of the record used by the remote program
logic.
The default value for this field is 1024.
- Big endian
- A check box that determines the byte order for integers sent to the
partner. If checked, the partner uses a BigEndian format;
otherwise the partner uses LittleEndian format.

- On AIX, CICS clients communicating with Intel servers do not support
BigEndian to LittleEndian translation.
