Datacom accounting TNAME is blank with BASE zero

Issue/Introduction

A Datacom accounting table has been created to capture statistics from a Datacom CICS transaction.  

Query on the accounting data shows TNAME ( = table name) being blank with BASE ( = database ID) zero. 

This was not expected . 

Environment

Z/OS

Datacom 15.1 

Resolution

Certain Datacom system commands—such as COMIT, LOGTB, and ROLBK—do not target a specific database table. Consequently, the accounting facility records these as having no associated table name (TNAME) with base ID (BASE) zero.

Additional Information

To clarify exactly which commands are generating these records, add the COMND element to your accounting table definition. This allows to see the specific commands executed for the CICS transaction.
