State transitions in APPC mapped conversations

These topics shows the state transitions that occur when transactions engage in APPC mapped conversations under the EXEC CICS® API.

The state transitions are presented in the form of state tables; and there is one table for each of the three allowable sync levels.

The state tables provide the following information for writing a DTP program. Firstly, they show which commands can be issued from each conversation state. Secondly, they show the state transitions that can occur and the EIB fields that can be set as a result of issuing a command.
