User sync points

These programs might issue user sync points: a top-level transaction that defines and runs a BTS process, a program that runs as the activation of a child activity, or a program executing outside the BTS environment that acquires a process or activity with an ACQUIRE command

A program that is running as the activation of a BTS process cannot issue user sync points ( EXEC CICS SYNCPOINT commands).

For more information about acquiring a process or activity with an ACQUIRE command, see Acquiring processes and activities.
