Hi all,
Generally for CICS to identify a program we wil be having PCT entry .We have certain programs invoked by both online and batch.
i.e. simply by call in cics and Batch.Did this program will need a PCt entry.

If it is a dynamic call you will need a PCT entry (now a RDO entry), if it is a static call it will be linked to the calling program and will not need a PCT entry.

warp5,

You mean a PPT entry, right? I don't see why you will need PCT entries for called programs.

Regards,
Manas

I stand corrected, yes, I did mean PPT, thanks for being observant. Got mislead by the original poster on that.

All programs that are addressed by CICS need a PPT entry, so you need a PPT entry for both Link and Xctl ! I must add that often now the autoinstall function is used, then those entries are generated when they are needed.
